Animal-Inspired Clutches by Judith Leiber

Lately every fashion lover has acquired at least one item featuring animalistic print. The most popular motifs among them there are doubtlessly leopard and zebra prints. So if you did not believe in the success of exotic prints, here you are. Now the trend for the prints have come our expectations. A famous fashion designer Judith Leiber has launched a series of animal inspired clutches.

These are not bags you can carry with just anything, this crystal embellished clutch looks probably its best when paired with all black. Hardly had the clutches appeared in boutiques, a wave of critics and admiration raised. Some women fell in love with a new trend, or it is better to say a new manifestation of the popular trend. While others consider new clutches absurdly extreme and inappropriate.

Actually, the clutches look super aesthetic: gracefully crouching animals’ bodies are covered from head to toe in hand placed Swarovski crystals. The few surfaces that aren’t crystallized are gold tone hardware, including the push-clasp fastening and chain handle that can be hidden inside for true clutch fashion. The interior features gold leather lining, wildcat clutches sport paws engraved on the base. And, of course, there you can see a tiny designer plaque.

Judith Leiber is known as the favorite designer of most celebrities, that is why I wonder if we will see any fashionista carrying an animal inspired clutch from Judith Leiber. The answer is unpredictable, I think. Anyway, these clutches are perfect for glamorous events, they are the sparkliest way to drive everybody’s attention and get numerous compliments.

Stripped Mother of Pearl Is a New Trend for Resort 2011

Recently in Paris took place the Resort 2011 fashion show where the points of view of different renowned designers for the season 2011 trends were revealed. That was quite a surprise to see that three fashion giants have similar view to the fashion of the nearest future. The Louis Vuitton and Lanvin clutches have different styles, but the way that each one resorts to achieve the finished product is surprisingly similar. The distinctive feature of both bags is thin strips of multicolored mother of pearl.

It is considered that two items does not make a trend, so few people believed that the similarities of the two evening bags were a coincidence. But that was before Judith Leiber – a fashion connoisseur highly renowned all over the world for extravagant and luxurious items – presented another version of a stripped mother of pearl clutch. Now we can definitely consider it to be the new trend for Resort 2011.

Comparing the work of Judith Leiber we can see that the designer used the diagonal inlay technique that resembles the one of Louis Vuitton, but the choice of colors is more similar to the Lanvin. Still there is a large difference that makes the clutch by Judith Leiber stand out much – the clutch is framed with gold.

It also features a massive hardware detail on the top similar to the version of Lanvin that features an interesting variant of hardware on the top and a metallic gold tone shoulder strap. The most enigmatic fastening has the clutch from Louis Vuitton. Visually it has no straps, zippers, buckles and so on. So I wonder how can I use it and is it comfortable?

Anyway, the mother of pearl clutches is the most extravagant idea of Resort 2011. I wonder whether it will turn into a new fashion trend.
