Main Trends of Autumn-Winter Bags of 2009-2010: Part One
Today we begin to acquaint you with the basic trends of fashion handbags for autumn-winter season 2009-2010.
Business and luxurious, rigorous and pretentious, minimalist and decorated with numerous details, smooth and embossed, rigid and formless – a range of actual handbags is now very wide, and each can choose a fashionable accessory of her taste and mood.
Lady’s bag
“New Nostalgia” – this name gained one of the leading autumn-winter trends of 2009-2010. The subject of nostalgia became the elegant style of 1940′s.
More than half a century has passed since the time when women, namely, ladies, wore prim, formal bags, with rigid structure and a flat bottom. Modern fashion also has formalism and rigor of this style, imposing new features only on materials and finishing.
Today, as parts of this trend, can be found many luxurious models from the crocodile and ostrich leather. Pay attention to the interesting modernization of the classic pattern of a crocodile leather: Giorgio Armani makes it with a stitched appliqué.
In the style of a school bag
Rectangular knapsacks and backpacks have long ceased to be mere attributes of the school.
The range of choice covers, rectangular, structural variants of Betty Jackson and Chanel, and practical, folding bag, like the Fendi model.
Young women of fashion advise to pay special attention to the collections of Luella and Paul Smith. In them you will find a charming mini-backpack, decorated with metal “frills” and hanging lock in the form of hearts, and – no less attractive option with photorealistic floral prints.
Return of “bum bag”
For several seasons soft and formless “bum bag” was in the shadow of mainstream, as though preparing for its triumphant return this winter.
Today practical, convenient “bum bags” are in great demand. For the new models is characterizing a single, short handle strap, a crescent shape, which looks perfectly combined with soft leather or suede.
Bowling bag
Classical form, which is always met with a special honor on the podium. In the coming winter this convex pouch with a flat bottom again looks respectable and stylish, while maintaining its inherent retro motifs.
Yet, it is impossible not to notice some renovation in Loewe and Donna Karan, seeking to bring the shape to a rectangle. In contrast to these brands, Eley Kishimoto does not alter the classic shape bag, adding only the accents on the corners and clove-feet on the bottom.
Miniature Bags
In contrast to huge bags, advertised by Nicole Richie, Mary-Kate Olsen and the LA set, in the autumn-winter collections appeared miniature handbags, most of which are accessories for evening dresses.
If we talk about materials, then the designers preferred the luxurious satin, rich velvet and “metallic” skin.
And in the matter of style, take a look at her bag in the form of a purse for coins, fastened with the button.
Clutch-envelopes
For several seasons Clutches are one of the favorites among the women’s fashion accessories.
There are wonderful youth style clutches in the collections of Luella and Derek Lam, which insists on a touch-tone combination of bags and gloves that look very feminine and just under a style of 1940.
