Victoria Beckham Fall 2011

“Structured will always exist in my handbag line, but I felt it was the right time to add some volume while softening the silhouettes,” Victoria Beckham told Bag Snob following her fall show. “I think women want to be confident and comfortable with their clothes AND bags.” This season, along with the easier shapes, Beckham developed her bag line to include practical-looking duffels and totes, but done in super soft cashmere and leather. My favorite piece from the collection is an over-the-shoulder duffel that has a nomadic vibe to it–if you’re version of wandering the lands is covered in suede. The new shopper tote maintains a somewhat rigid shape but gently expands out to increase volume. And while I admit I like her first season structured bags more, these, judging by retailers’ reported 100 percent sell-throughs, will be a big hit.
