Trend Alert: Quilted/Woven Handbags

A clearly understated element of style for fall 2007 has been the numerous woven or quilted details found on bags by designers such as Fendi, Bottega Veneta, and Marc Jacobs.

Now, this type of detailing isn't anything new to the fashion world, simply a recycling of an old idea. However, designers are changing it up a bit for the fall '07 season by adding interesting details, such as cut-outs, metallic leather, and bright, funky colors.


Bottega Veneta Marquise Mini Tote, $1820

Fendi Crossword Grande Mirrored Bag, $2,230, eLuxury

Marc Jacobs Collection Quilted Stam Bag, $1,275, eLuxury

This modern take on a classic accessory is sure to have some staying power, and probably a long waiting list, so grab up these one-of-a-kind statement pieces right away!
