Valentino is one of my favorite lines of all time, because, for the most part, the house is extremely consistent in terms of design. They’ve been putting out tasteful, but luxurious, feminine classics for half a century. This studded lizard clutch is an amazing addition to an already fabulous line.
The lizard skin on this bag is, in one word, extraordinary. I have no idea what kind of reptile it comes from, but it looks like something straight out of Oz. Valentino calls the color scheme grey and creme, but it is so shimmery as to be almost metallic. Whatever the magical combination is here, the material looks luminescent.
The shape is a simple, hard-cased rectangle, reminiscent of the 1920s. It is geometrical and minimal and allows the opulent texture of the reptile material to be the centerpiece. Ordinarily, I might balk at adding studs to such a perfectly simple bag, but on this clutch, it seems to emphasize the amazing texture without taking away from it.
At $3,400, this is a serious designer bag at a serious price. Honestly, though, for such exotic materials, it’s almost a bargain. If haute couture is your bag, this is definitely the bag for you.
