1940s film goddess Cyd Charisse inspired Argentinean brand Marcela Calvet to create this lovely handbag which shares her name.
Just as Ms Charisse turned heads in the film classics Singin’ in the Rain and Silk Stockings, this handbag is destined to make a real impression when it enters the room. Its shape is so unusual and its ostrich skin exotic. But that structured silhouette ensures it doesn’t look too outlandish. And by refusing to bend to trends, the Charisse is every bit as classically beautiful as its movie star muse.
Marcela Calvet is a brand that never does things by halves, but I never take a luxury interior for granted. Too many labels forget about what the public doesn’t see, but not Marcela Calvet. The brand lines this generously sized space in soft Argentine calfskin. The zip and cell phone pockets make the interior much easier to manage.
It’s hard to find fault with the Charisse. Even the price seems reasonable. $1790 certainly isn’t cheap, but it’s surprisingly affordable for a handcrafted exotic purse.
