Sleek minimalism is Jil Sander’s signature aesthetic, so I was a little surprised by the blingy, embellished look of this bag. But despite the exotic nature of the materials, the design of the bag is clean and structured.
The brushed gold frame of the Madame Lizard accents and showcases the exotic multicolored lizard leather with flair. The material of this bag is truly extraordinary. I can honestly say I’ve never seen anything like it, nor have I seen lizard skin used in such a unique manner. Because of the black leather peeking through the cutouts in the lizard skin, the surface of the bag looks almost pebbled, and it takes a moment to take in all the extravagant detail.
Jil Sander keeps the details simply-shaped, but in keeping with the posh exoticism of the rest of the bag. The slim shoulder strap is short, and will be comfortable to carry, and I love the stamped metal key-tag. The Madame Lizard also includes an internal detachable black leather purse to keep things organized.
At $2,445 the Madame Lizard is certainly not cheap, but it’s price is well within range of where it should be for such an amazingly crafted handbag.
