Carlos Falchi Rivet-Detailed Leather Doctor Bag

Carlos-Falchi

The doctor bag has gone from solely functional to functional and fashionable. This new combination is right up my alley. I am always interested in seeing new version of doctor bags. There are some doctor bags that you look at and notice its classic shape right away. Then there are other options, like the Carlos Falchi Rivet-Detailed Leather Doctor Bag, where the doctor bag theme is understated. Carlos Falchi knows how to take a classic design and put a modern spin on it.

This dark, navy blue leather handbag is fabulous. The intricate studded design and drawstrings along the sides adds a nice simple yet edgy feel to the bag. The interior boasts logo lining, tons of pockets, a money clip, pen holders and a center zip divider. All of the storage options are fantastic for a larger handbag like this. With the large size of the bag, storage options means that you can place your must-have items within a hands grab. The 9.75″ shoulder drop offers the chance to carry the bag on your shoulder or in your hand. Again, options are good and Falchi knows how to make things good!

LA Fashion Week—Cerre’s Cool Collective

A hand-cut leather jacket from Cerre fall/winter 2009

For spring/summer 2010, Cerre opted to show a series of short films at its Hollywood store at 1647 North Las Palmas, culling together one of the most stylish groups of attendees I’ve seen thus far during LA Fashion Week (or rather, month). The dim-lit ambiance set an appealing mood, but, unfortunately, was not great for photos. I recommend going to the boutique to check out designers Flavie and Clayton Webster’s collection for yourself, where fall/winter 2009 and spring/summer 2010 were both out for the seeing and feeling.

Pieces are meticulously constructed (check the gorgeous leather jacket with hand-cut back above) with interesting fabric combinations (for instance, leather and mesh on a skirt, adding a hint of transparency). Prices reflect the high-end materials and small-run production, exclusive to a few shops in the US, Europe and Asia. Very lovely.

Carlos Falchi Python Floral Sling

Carlos-falchi-hobo

by: Megs Mahoney Dusil

One of our favorite aspects of this job is having the opportunity to meet amazing, talented designers. We have lucked out with every designer being so personable and fun, and each one having an entirely different story. And some stories stick out in your mind, with the people behind the story being unforgettable. This is true with Carlos Falchi who we absolutely adore and look forward to seeing again soon! When we interviewed Carlos Falchi we not only had the opportunity to ask him about his line, but we got a tour of his entire studio, saw the painting that he did with each bag, saw the skins, and saw the factory. It was truly an experience of a lifetime.

One aspect that stuck out in my mind was Carlos painting on the skins, which would soon be formed into the bags. Carlos Falchi himself hand paints many of the skins and that is entirely unique. And one of the most interesting aspects about the Carlos Falchi Python Floral Sling is that Carlos Falchi Floral Print Vlad and I saw this pattern being painted by Carlos while we visited him last October. This bag is exclusive to Saks and shows off colorful exotic blooms which were hand-painted onto the shiny white python skin. All Carlos Falchi bags are rather light, since Carlos is not a user of hardware, rather lets the skin and design stand on its own. This bag is perfect for spring. Light and airy, floral and colorful. There is a single strap with a 12″ drop along with inside pockets. Dimensions are 22″W X 12″H x 8″D.
Buy through Saks for $2790.
