Only Lanvin could create a blush-colored evening bag that manages to look both motorcycle-inspired and also the height of chic. This line is amazing, and the Oulouette is a testament to the way Lanvin is able to combine seemingly dissimilar elements with extraordinary results.
The blush color is very of-the-moment, but it also has a classic appeal that makes it timeless. What I really love about the fabric is the triangular quilting. It is smooth and elegant, but it also looks like the venting on motorcycle gear, a combination that I find totally irresistible.
The sleek rectangular shape of the bag is perfectly plain, which lets the fabric and details take center stage. The front clasp has a black cabochon that sparkles beautifully and contrasts nicely with the pale color of the bag. The burnished silver and gold chain is delightfully incongruous with the rich satin, and can be removed so the Oulouette can be carried as a clutch. It can also be worn as a necklace or belt.
The ostrich plume embellishment makes the Oulouette look like the fancy French couture bag that it is. Unfortunately, it also comes with a fancy French price. Unfortunately, $1,195 is the cost of this level of gorgeousness.
