If I’m being honest, the bags from new York fashion Week were a little…mediocre. We still have a number of collections to show you that I liked, however I didn’t discover much that made me feel all fluttery in the purse part of my brain. That’s not necessarily uncommon; the fluttery feelings mainly occur at foreign fashion weeks, since let’s deal with it, the Europeans truly understand exactly how to do high-end leather goods. Usually, though, I get a bit bit more excited than I did last week.
Easily the brightest area so far, at least when we’re speaking about bags I’d really like to buy as well as bring for myself, is Derek Lam’s spring 2012 purse collection. Lam isn’t understood for his leather products any type of more than for his clothes or shoes, however this group of bags truly stood out to be as modern, fascinating as well as different than the rest of what we’ve seen from American designers this week. Kudos to Mr. Lam, since these styles have been a welcome palate cleanser.
