With the royal nuptials coming up so soon, I’m thinking about my favorite British designers. Matthew Williamson is on that list. He is a British designer who graduated from Central St. Martin with a BA in Fashion Design and printed textiles. He began his own fashion house in 1997 and at one point was the head of LVMH owned Emilio Pucci. A Williamson design will feature incredibly beautiful prints that convey luxe, luxe and more luxe. Walk into his boutique in the Meatpacking District of NYC and you will be compelled to reach out and touch his amazing fabrics used in beautiful designs. I dare you to try NOT to touch!
While Mr. Williamson does very few handbags, I truly love how they are an extension of his style. Too often a designer who excels in clothing ventures into handbags and there is no distinct correlation between the two. Not so with Matthew’s beauties!
The appliqed suede clutch has a distinctive textile feeling. The body of the clutch is in a rich royal blue suede while the flap has all of the eye candy.
Woven fabric and metallic thread, iridescent bronze sequins and peacock feathers are melded together to create a stellar three-dimensional effect. Browns, blues, blacks and greens reflect the color of the peacock feathers in a beautiful and high-impact design. The zippered single interior pocket opens to reveal clean black twill.
For every girl who owns a little black dress and needs an impact bag to make a complete statement. This bag will be the perfect accessory. It’s quite roomy to, measuring 12″ x 9″ x 3″. Available for $1695.
