Jil Sander Madame Lizard Shoulder Bag

Jil Sander’s Madame Lizard bag is tricky, an optical illusion if you will. Look at it closely, tell me what you see… don’t go to the site to read the description. First let’s test those pretty eyes of yours. Now, do you see a bag embellished with odd shaped paillettes? Or do you see cut outs on the lovely lizard skin?

The tiny cutouts are so precise and perfectly done that it leads the eyes (at least in photos) to believe that they are sequins of some sort. I was ready to slob this until I took a close look, what a creative way for a brand known for its minimalist values to get fancy with a classic frame bag. And how decadent to cut out expensive lizard skin– I hope they saved the cut outs to put on small leather goods! The more I look at this bag the more I like it, the rosy hued lizard skin is gorgeous with burnished gold hardware. A bag for the modern lady who lunches. What do you think of it? And don’t worry about your precious belonging slipping through the cutouts, the bag comes with its own mini leather coin purse.Jil Sander Madame Lizard Shoulder Bag Width 12″ / 30cm $2,445.00
