TATLER FOCUS This is some serious arm candy you would want to be seen with.
Bold. Ostentatious. Daring. These are all words one would associate with the Versace woman. The Italian dynasty may be known for the iconic prints and daring vision of opulent glamour in their clothes, but eye-catching bags deserve a special mention too.
As a tribute to Donatella’s late brother Gianni Versace, the spring/summer 2018 collection paid homage to his legacy by celebrating the inspirations and creations he had made by digging deep into the archives and re-releasing some of his most iconic pieces, including the bags he created in the ‘90s.
Here are three bags from the house that we strongly feel every woman should definitely know about (and not to mention, own!).
1. The Everyday Bag
Perfect for the working woman, this top handle bag is one of the tribute collection’s more classic pieces and is perfect for any female on the go. With its supple calf leather and its boxy shape, the Palazzo Empire blends both luxury with practicality, and pairs perfectly with any wardrobe, no matter your style.
This timeless piece is great for everyday use and with its structure and shape, it is a great bag for the office and business brunches. For casual weekends? Just throw on the extra strap that allows the tote to be carried in a multitude of ways, allowing you to be both hands-free and stylish while running your errands.
Fans of Versace’s louder designs, don’t be fooled by the classic piece. The bag still retains its quintessential Versace DNA with the signature Medusa hardware, giving it an edge over a plain leather bag. And if that’s not enough, the Palazzo Empire comes in a multitude of sizes and colours/exotic skins with a special Baroque print and embroidery that matches the runway collection.
