Anya Hindmarch’s Quirky Evening Clutches

Potato chips just happen to be my ultimate daytime or evening snack…the crunchier and saltier the better. My plate is garnished with them on many a meal. Hindmarch’s playful high-shine clutches remind me of my favorite crunchy snack. In my fashionable opinion these potato chip-inspired clutches MISS the mark. They’re totally fun but would you carry this PRICEY ($1595.00) evening clutch to a black-tie event? Yes, the Crisp Packet can be worn as a shoulder bag with its long detachable metal chain strap…but definitely more fun to carry as a clutch. The bags are lined in suede, feature silvertone hardware, a clasp closure and take ten days to make. The bag will hold all your essentials and a handful of chips if you get hungry!

They remind me of one of my favorite artists… Jeff Koons and his fun-loving pop art.

The bags are made in Italy in a factory that typically makes jewelry. Hindmarch likes to think of these bags as “wearable art”. While many of her bags tend to be dowdy and too sophisticated these metal Crisp Packet bags are totally cool. I’m not sure I want to represent the potato chip industry in my hand especially given its hefty price tag. If this look is for you….Click the purple links to indulge. The Crisp Packet Metal Clutch is available in silver, blue and orange. Pre-order today on A Few Goody Gumdrops!
