Jimmy Choo’s take on animal print bags is so much classier than average. The Gwen combines the sassy attitude of leopard spots with sophisticated urban elements that make it a perfectly balanced, perfectly beautiful bag.
The combination of materials on the Gwen is masterful. The snake-embossed black leather is shiny and multi-dimensional and it contrasts gorgeously with the fur texture of the calf skin. The subtle blurring of the leopard pattern makes the pattern seem a little softer and less extreme than it could be, which is more suitable for a bag that you’ll want to carry everywhere.
The design of the Gwen is almost luggage-inspired. Actually, it looks kind of like a little tiny steamer trunk. The beautifully chosen details are modern, but timeless. The short chain strap makes it perfect for hand-holding, and the petite size makes the Gwen a very practical option for day or night.
As is to be expected, this kind of quality, plus the Choo name, comes at a premium. At $1695, the Gwen isn’t cheap, but enthusiasts might find it to be a worthwhile investment.
