Marni’s created a show-stopping, but ultimately uninspiring, accessory with this sequined pouch.
It’s impossible to dislike a purse that’s covered in bright red sequins. The shiny discs are just so fun, catching the light and upping the glam factor. But I feel the sequins are doing all the work, while Marni’s having a rest. The fashion house has gotten lazy frankly, and for this price I’m not happy to accept it.
This is a very simple pouch, both inside and out. There’s absolutely nothing hiding away inside, no organizational pockets and no shoulder strap. Since we’re forced to hold it in our hands all the time, we risk knocking off those sequins. And once you lose one sequin, more are likely to follow it. Then suddenly your pretty sparkly pouch is looking very second-hand.
Treat it carefully though and this purse will really impress. Whether it’s impressive enough to warrant the $195 Marni is asking is another issue. Personally I think that’s far too much to pay for such lazy design.
