Stella McCartney is known not only for her witty, downtown takes on classic designs, but also for her animal and eco-friendly business practices. In both of those ways, this gorgeous little clutch epitomizes her work.
Along with everything else that was popular in the 80’s, animal prints are definitely making a major comeback. They were everywhere on the Fall runways, and they’re starting to hit shelves in a major way. What I like about this clutch is that it subdues the zebra print by making it monochromatic. The pleats detail on the front break up the pattern of the print, but in a way that is interesting rather than distracting.
The simple rectangluar gold frame adds a touch of uptown shine to the matte fabric of the bag. The ball snap closure is sleek and feminine, and I love the delicate (and detachable) chain strap.
This is a fabulous clutch by a fabulous and responsible designer, and the only thing I wish were different about it is the price. At $515, it’s just not terribly recession friendly.
