Loewe, Spain’s premier luxury handbag company is less known in the US than it’s LVMH (as in Louis Vuitton) owned counterparts, surprisingly, in this era of the next big brand, they have no big flagship here, and are only carried in DFS Galleria (also owned by LVMH) stores in San Francisco, and Hawaii.
But that is soon to change…according to an article in the Wall Street Journal , the line will be carried by Henri Bendel, sort of a hipper, funkier Bergdorfs.
In honor of that, I figured, why not introduce the line? And yes, there were many beautiful bags to choose from, but I simply could not resist this one…
Made from a beautiful shade of pale green python, this bag looks like some sort of chi-chi take out salad that comes with it’s own handle. The resemblance to a head of Boston lettuce is uncanny. It would be a perfect tote to carry a pet rabbit around town, in style!
Or, maybe the designer had just returned from a preview of Disney’s The Little Mermaid, and was inspired by the seaweed.
Whatever the reasoning behind this bag, it is a miss…even the gorgeous skin and color can’t save it.
But please, don’t judge a company by it’s vegetation, take a look at other styles…I’m sure you’ll be wondering where Loewe has been all your life!
