My first show of New York Fashion Week took place at the intimate venue of the New York Public Library – and I couldn’t have been happier than to kick it off with Victoria Beckham. Not only is Fall 2012 her best ready-to-wear collection to date, it also presented us with the widest range of bags we have seen from her yet!
Amid bold, body-hugging stripes, chunky knit socks (piled out of Christian Louboutin boots) and buttoned-up military jackets was a well-edited selection of large, oversized bags and clutches to complement the clothes. Creamy taupe panels set off thick maroon leather, duffel style set off with exotic panels, for a riff on racing stripes, and hardware kept to an absolute minimum, aside from a rare gold-zipper toss-in.
And best of all: a twist on last season’s chain-strapped twist. Victoria’s newest additions to her sleek totes are pin-thin, suede envelope clutches brought to life by bold leather straps, bundled up around the wrists of the models. It’s a collection we all left thinking, more Victoria please.
I love the styles of these bags and the colors would go great with just about anything!
I am very pleasantly surprised by this collection. I quite like it.
