Furla proves that a hobo can be elegant with this chic Adriana handbag.
The crescent shape is familiar, but there’s just a hint of the slouch we associate with hobos. The buttery leather can’t help but fall softly, but we get the feeling that Furla is in complete control of this hobo’s shape. Even the V-shaped pleat in the front has a very deliberate structure. That means this isn’t really the hobo you’ll choose for the summer music festival season, but it’ll work in the office or on your next hot date.
The mirrored logo plaque is a bit obnoxious, but thankfully it’s easily removed. The discreet embossed logo and signature lining are much more elegant ways to show the brand’s heritage.
That lining covers the generously sized interior, which while not outstanding does the trick. I’m much more impressed with the choice of straps. The short one is ideal for over-the-shoulder toting, while the longer allows us to carry this hobo across our body. Making them detachable would have given this hobo a cleaner look, but it’s not really a deal breaker.
This bag is much more stylish than most we’d snare for $545. If we have to lose out on leather trimmed pockets and protective metal feet for that price, so be it.
