I’ve seen so many woven handbags lately that they’re almost becoming commonplace, so I was thrilled to see Radley taking some risks with this unique woven leather bowler.
Rather than using regular strips of leather, Radley interweaves differently sized swatches to create an effect which is striking and stylish. The rich brown, burgundy, and olive tones remind me of the changing leaves of fall. That makes it perfect for autumn fashion, although I’m sure you could get away with carrying this purse at any time of year.
Such a unique weave may have looked busy on another bag, but by sticking to the bowler’s classic clean lines and keeping it free of embellishments Radley makes it work. It also doesn’t rest on its look, delivering a purse that’s combines style and substance.
There are two roomy interior compartments, each secured with a zip, to make staying organized that much easier. We’re also given a choice of carrying options, with a long detachable cross-body strap complementing the dual rolled handles.
At $248 this woven Radley bag represents excellent value.
