Stella McCartney Falabella
IT! Bags…. You might own one. Mulberry, Proenza Schouler, Givenchy, Fendi…. We each have our favorites. This season, there’s someone new that I would consider being in this amazing group… Stella McCartney.
Ms. McCartney was never one to rest on her famous Dad’s laurels. She began working with Christian LaCroix at age 15. She has made a name for herself by mixing clean silhouettes, mixing high and low materials and styles for a look that is sought after by young fashionistas worldwide.
The Falabella BIGCHAIN tote is a prime example of this juxtaposition. Luxurious Italian ivory, vegan faux leather contrasted with chain detail fastened with whipstitch detail more reminiscent of casual western attire is a fabulous marriage of opposites attracting. Eco Chic at its finest.
This bag is very large measuring 17″ x 12 1/2″ x 3″ with 9″ drop. The fabric lined interior has a zipperd pocket and an open pocket. The chain has an nifty circular charm with the brand name. Subtle and discreet, the bag stands on it’s design not on it’s logo… just the way I like it.
Available for $1430 in the Stella McCartney Boutique at Net-a-Porter.
Also available at LUISAVIAROMA

I do really love this bag.. but that’s kinda expensive for a “plastic” bag. imo
I agree!!!!
Not leather
Love the design though!
Is this an older style? I swear I’ve seen it a previous season. But anyway, I adore it! The chain detailing is the perfect touch.
Why can’t this bag be made of leather? Arhgggg
I saw this bag in person, and I love it. However, it’s insulting that someone would charge this much money for a non-leather handbag.
I understand her whole vegan-thing and thinking that the use of leathe is unethical. I applaud her for not being hypocritical, but that price is just wrong.
LOVE Stella!
