Lanvin Fall 2011 Bags

Exuding pure and timeless glamour, Lanvin’s women looked as though they stepped out of a noir thriller– mysterious femme fatales with sexy secrets to keep. Their bags generally were the most straightforward aspect of their looks (eye-obscuring, wide-brimmed hats and cape-like coats, anyone?). One luxe, ladylike, structured handbag appeared after another. Boxier than most as of late, they directly matched the palette of the clothing, in neutral colors– mink brown, inky gray, and honeyed camel.The sensational, sparkly clutches, on the other hand, were little bejeweled treasures worthy of a fairy tale. If you’re going to glitter, do it in Lanvin. Either way, sharp brown leather or encrusted with crystals, Elbaz is a genius who knows what women want in their opera-gloved hands. (Love him, he is the joyful master oozing with love, not hate!)
