Classic Designs vs. Emerging Trends
Are clutch bags still in style? No one can deny that 90s fashion is back in a BIG way. Bucket hats, wide-legged cargo pants and crochet accessories have all been seen on the catwalks this season. So, it’s no surprise that these 90s vibes are influencing handbags too. As well as woven fabrics, embroidered details and statement fringe, we are also seeing more subtle nods towards the trends of the era.
High-end designers are incorporating elements such as drawstring closures and wearable purses while still utilizing luxurious elements such as lambskin leather and muted tan hues. Moreover, these purses come in various sizes to accommodate different items, including wallets.
As always, designer clutch bags continue to set the trends we see on the high streets, with many of these bags becoming iconic investment pieces. Those of us women who spent some money on our statement handbags, purses and wallets in the 90s are now revelling in the beauty of having them out on display again, proving that the cyclical nature of fashion is always worth the price tag. We can proudly showcase our fashionable items again.
It takes a keen eye and sophisticated style to be able to select the perfect purse to compliment an outfit, and choosing the ideal clutch is no easy task. With so many options, colours, sizes and styles, it's better to have a previous selection!
Finding the balance between casual and formal, selecting the correct level of playfulness, and whether you want to be bold with your choices or not are all important considerations when selecting the perfect from the designer clutch bags.
Picking a bag that is on trend for the season certainly helps avoid many fashion faux pas, but which styles and designs are popular this season?
