Woven Bags from Carolina Herrera, Spring/Summer 2010
Continuing to explore the future trends of spring, let’s turn our attention to the collection of bags from Carolina Herrera brand. These accessories, I think, are very interesting and attractive.

The first thing one wants to stress when looking at the collection it is a textured surface of bags, reminiscent of woven baskets. This season we have already seen something like this: on such a surface finish, specializes also Bottega Veneta.
The palette of the collection is pleasant to the eye: it is dominated by soft, natural tones and natural shades, which further hint at the style of braided baskets. Carefully look at the handles of bags: between the interlocks of skin shapes of stones are recognizable, sewn inside the handle. In my opinion, it is an original idea.

All the introduced bags are not very large (otherwise, this design idea could appear somewhat brutal), and can be worn in the hand, as a clutch. Handles in this case serve rather as an attractive adornment.
It remains to add that Carolina Herrera proposes to complement these accessories exclusively with feminine dresses and sets. And I think this bag is able to give a kind of bohemian look to a simple strict skirt or a laconic dress, but certainly with bright and warm colors.
