Tim Schifter described the idea behind the collection was to “create something timeless, something classic and with an irreverent twist. That’s why going into the design process, we came up with a concept that we really tried to stick with as we came up with the collection group: style after style, leather after leather. The bags themselves are closer to the European luxury feeling than the American contemporary handbag category. I think they’re highly differentiated but priced in the contemporary. Gwen’s unique personal take on fashion incorporated her signature elements like Rasta colors and the old English lettering. For spring, we’re incorporating velvet into the collection. For this first launch, there are two collections – the Signature collection and the leather collection which is called Love. The reaction has been phenomenal. We were going to launch it for Spring 2007 delivery but the retailers wanted it for holiday.” (thedaily.com)

There are 33 different styles of handbags, which retail in range of $395 to $700. These new bags will make their debut beginning of December. This will be perfect timing for the Holiday shopping season. Location – location, these bags will be available at stores such as eluxury.com, Nordstroms, Bloomingdales, Henri Bendel’s, Saks Fifth Avenue, and Holt-Renfrew in Canada.

To be honest (sorry Gwen) I don’t really care for this collection. I have only seen those two bags pictured above from the L.A.M.B collection and nothing really stands out enough for me to rush to the Nordstroms on the day of delivery. That being said with out seeing the collection up close – I may change my mind.
