Christopher Kane Aqua Gel-Filled PVC Clutches: Step Into Liquid
By Bag Snob Tina
August 1, 2011

Just when I thought I had seen everything when it comes to clutches (glow-in-the-dark! handcuffs!), leave it to wildly creative kook Christopher Kane to throw us for a real loop. The self-proclaimed neon-lover has just taken things to a new liquid level. That’s right. These clear PVC clutches are filled with colorful gel, for a super-squishy effect that begs to be squeezed. Which kind of scares me – if this bag turns on you, you’ve got neon liquid all over your ensemble.

In pale green (it almost looks like slime a comic book villain might ooze out) or bright red (I’m seeing Snow Cones and slushies) tinged with blue, these look more like items you might find in my son’s playroom rather than couture clutches. But there’s a fine line between frivolity and fashion, and there’s always a place for novelty! I just don’t know if that place is my hands. What do you think: children’s toy or irreverent conversation piece? On Net-a-Porter for $720.

    PVC pencil cases and organizer covers filled with colorful gel was so IN when I was in elementary school. Hahaha! They’re loads of fun, but the gel dries out eventually. If you do get this bag, keep in mind that it’s not going to last (that’s basing it on my little kiddie experiences, though).

    Bit too gimmicky. I prefer the laser cut lace effect leather clutches by him!

    This looks like something from the days of bubble necklaces and slap bracelets. I would’ve loved this when I was eleven. I don’t think my allowance would’ve covered it, though.

    I had some lip glosses (I think?) when I was a kid that came in a case like these. It had straight edges but the pink and purple liquid looked the same! Guess I should have kept that huh?!?
