De Couture Print Flap Over Bag - Designer Handbag & Purse Chat.. The Bag Forum

VivaLaJuicy · May 26th, 2008, 08:29 PM

So is this a cool bag or what? As I ran into this newbie over at ShopJake (dot com), my first thought was, “how the heck do you wear it”? Meet the Print Flap Over Bag by De Couture. I normally tend to stay away from complicated structured handbags, but this one particular “weirdo”, truly caught my attention. This bag literally resembles a large folded silk scarf; its body is even made out of silk! You would think a large silk handbag (it measures 23” x 18” x 4”) would practically collapse when worn or put down, but it’s big secret in keeping its structure is its large patch of caramel leather found on its back. Neat huh?

Brown florals are printed along the silk body of this bag. I actually like the nature-ish theme; it’s not tacky, but rather artistic. Other features found on the Over Bag includes two straps which allow versatility when carrying. You can use its single flat caramel leather shoulder strap or try its gold plated chain, both can be found attached to the bags’ body.

How do you ladies feel about this bag? Personally, I dig it. It’s totally different and eye catching as well. I will note that this bag seems like such a high-maintenance bag when it comes to keeping it clean, other than that if you have the $1195, why not invest in something different?

There's just something about this bag that draws me into the design.
