Are You Looking For Fashion Bags?
These days we're prepared to spend more on a handbag than a holiday or even a car - and we want the rest of the world to know it.Clothes on the catwalk regularly take second place to this most covetable of accessories.The message is clear: clothes are redundant - it's all about the It-Bag.
But why do we find bags so desirable? It's partly because they've become a unique outward statement of a woman's status, fashion savvy and earning power - and the rising popularity of handbags over the past 100 years has followed the increasing social independence of their owners.
