Evening purse queen Fiona Kotur has teamed up with America’s favorite retailer J. Crew for a small capsule collection of clutches.
There are just two styles to choose from, but theyre available in a range of colors and fabrics and finishes. The Union has a crisp and clean box shape while the Colony is a little curvier and more contemporary. Both feature classic pillbox closures and tuck-away chain shoulder straps.
I’m especially taken with the embossed snakeskin finishes pictured, but if you prefer something less exotic there are several other options. Flannel has a grungy casual appeal, while the shagreen leather is edgy and unique. And if you’re heading out on the town you could choose silk brocade or glittering sequins.
I appreciate a designer focusing on just a few styles rather than extending themselves. However I can’t help wishing for more differences between these two clutch purses. If you weren’t looking for the variations you’d probably miss them.
I’ve always respected both Kotur and J. Crew’s commitment to attainable fashion, so I’m thrilled to see the fashion houses haven’t priced this collection out of our reach. The Kotur for J. Crew clutches are available for $425 from J. Crew.
