For Fall 2007, Miuccia Prada sent models down the runway carrying what has come to be, the perfect clutch. The 'bow clutch' came in a multitude of color-ways, and for the daring, a pair of matching color-block opera length gloves. The brilliance of this piece comes in the engineering. The wearer's hand slides underneath the bow, and can slide through to the wrist - leaving both hands free! No more scrambling to balance your cocktail in one hand, clench your purse, and twirl on the dance floor. Pure perfection, my only regret, buying just one.
Ms. P. brought this eponymous handbag back for Fall 2011. The bow, now a buckle, but the idea remains the same. Grazie! I'll take one in every color.
