Ever since Reed Krakoff announced the release of his eponymous line, the fashion world has been obsessed. Luckily, the line has mostly lived up to its expectations, and has received a lot of critical acclaim. This sophisticated RK Ribbon satchel is poised to become one of this season’s most coveted accessories.
The RK Ribbon satchel has been constructed, patchwork style, out of strips of soft, supple black leather. This gives the bag a monochromatic striping effect that is low key, but interesting. I’m really excited about the texture of the satchel, which is all smooth leather save the seaming.
The structured shape of the RK is softened up by the materials. In a hard leather, this would be a tough, too geometric design, but in this soft leather the look becomes more casual and more wearable. The best thing about this bag is that it has a strong design presence, but not one that bespeaks a particular style. This is the kind of everyday bag that you could wear with just about anything and everything.
$1,090 is a relatively low price, considering the cost of many of Krakoff’s other offerings, and it’s really not bad for such a versatile piece.
