When Halston chose Sarah Jessica Parker as its creative director, the fashion world was turned upside down. Even fans of SJP wondered if she had the chops to actually design clothes and accessories, as opposed to just looking good in them. But her simple, chic, and affordable designs are making a big hit and proving the naysayers wrong. This Maritza clutch is a great example of the urban, feminine style that SJP is bringing to Halston.
The nap on this deep black suede is extremely short, which gives it a smooth, rich look. It will also be much easier to keep clean than a bag with longer nap, as it is less likely to pick up dirt and such. Unfortunately, it will also get worn down and shiny easily, but for the price, that’s something I’d be willing to tolerate.
The design is perfectly minimal and elegant, a simple foldover pouch. The geometric Halston logo adds a modern touch, and the chain link strap is very of-the-moment. This is one of the most sophisticated bags I’ve seen for under $200, and I can’t wait to see what SJP comes up with next.
