Botkier Bags for Target! - Designer Handbag & Purse Chat.. The Bag Forum

Jennifer · June 9th, 2008, 03:51 PM

The bags are expected to make their big debut on July 20th

Designer Monica Botkier describes it as "a mix of luxury and utility with a downtown edge. It is for the chic, modern woman — it features rich textures and luxe metallics, combining my signature use of hardware as the jewelry of a handbag while still keeping a focus on functionality."

Anyone excited to see this line at target?

This reminds me of the Coach Leigh bag....

However, maybe it's just me, but don't some of the bags look like replica's? I mean some of the styles are identical to the designers more expensive line, but made with cheaper material. I just couldn't rock one..

I know. I love their clothes...I have a few pieces from the GO International...but their bags DO feel cheap. And they want like $50 and less for them! I only bought the one cross body Gryson bag for summer if I went to the zoo or something lol.

.. i was going to say. the bag in the second picture on the right.. i've seen that same style somewhere before by a different designer. but who was it.. (thinking)

Jennifer · June 9th, 2008, 04:07 PM

Oh wait, I'm just thinking of the Botkier Nightfall bag.

(identical to the target bag)

yea idk about those i guess it would be good if your on a tight budget and still want the look even thought the quality isent that great.

The only one I really like is the fuschia hobo.
I know its Target and all [love it] but the leather looks cheap. Too vinyl-y. The bags would probably look better in a canvas or something, but as of now...
The wristlets just look kind of "Urban Oufitters clearance in 2 months".

I like the silver and gold one in this pic.

I like these too.

Does anyone know if they are going to be made of plastic/PVC like the Gryson line for Target?

daniC23 · June 9th, 2008, 07:55 PM

I like the Nightfall version...I may grab that one in silver. I'm surprised there's no Trigger version, I see that as a Botkier staple, I've loved mine to death (almost literally

) I like that silver one and the clutches more than the Botkier section at my Nordstroms.

Jess · July 13th, 2008, 11:15 AM

Yep, they're made of PVC.

You can get them online now.

I most likely won't. It's just less money I have to put towards one of the bags in my signature! I'll check them out though...when I do...I'll take pictures and show you all.
