Mulberry is one of those lines that has kind of taken me by surprise. I had all but written it off as a bastion of conservative aesthetics, but lately, it is putting out some very fashionable, but still traditional, accessories. This Cory shoulder bag is the perfect example of how it is able to update its classic design sensibility for a modern audience.
The texture of the leather on the Cory is pitch perfect. It looks like a sort of glossy tweed, but it’s actually leather. This is great for someone like me, because I love the look of tweed, but the durability of leather is far more suited to my lifestyle. If you’re like me, there’s no way a nubbly fabric bag is going to last you very long.
The old-fashioned shape of the Cory is offset by the contemporary strap. By old-fashioned I don’t mean out-of-date, but it is more conservative and ladylike than a lot of today’s designs. The very structured look works well with the gold chain strap and prominent turn-lock closure, and the animal-print tassel adds the tiniest touch of edginess.
This is the perfect bag for a woman with conservative taste who still wants to look on trend. But its timeless design ensures that your $1,395 will be an investment that lasts longer than a single season.
