No one knows better than the iconic Marc Jacobs how to walk the fine line between the bizarre and the spectacular. He pulls off incredible feats each season with one singular design after the other. You may love them or hate them but you just cannot ignore them: precisely what the designer, who also made fashion headlines with miniskirts for men, has in mind.
From the house of this renowned American fashion designer comes a horde of brand new Parachute bags of two different sizes and a mélange of shades. A Parachute bag is essentially a slouchy item with its material gathered into relaxed folds. Elegant in its own way it is roomy and has a comfortable, languid look about it. Its shimmery disco glamour is perfect for an evening out or a party. Pair it with a youthful and chic dress and you get a fresh, effervescent look.
The small Parachute bags in silver, black and olive are clear winners. Made of PVC the olive bag has a trimming at the upper side, which gathers the loose folds of the material together gracefully, and the brown leather detailing gives it class. The olive color and metallic sheen suits the design perfectly, while the chain-link handle takes the fashion quotient to new heights. Equipped with zippered opening both at the top and at the sides, Parachute bags are roomy enough to hold all your stuff; cell phone, wallet, make up, they will all go in there without a hiccup.
Some turn up their noses at the PVC material of these bags, while others see it as symbolic of new-agedness.Whatever your point of view you can never stay invisible if you are sporting a Marc Jacobs handbag. You will be stalked, by admiring eyes.
The Parachute bags cost anything from 500 to 600 pounds.
