Way back at the beginning of July, when I began this blog,(The beginning of July probably does not mean 'way back' for some of you veteran bloggers! Forgive me!) I posted about Clutches. This summer I fell in love with the Clutch. I just love the feminine Grace Kelly touch they add to an ensemble or the kitsch quirk they bring to a regular outfit. Without a doubt I will be continuing my love affair with the Clutch this autumn/winter but with a twist. Well not so much a 'twist' but a size enlargement.
Yes, that cute little bejewelled clutch, still wrapped in tissue paper since the last time you used it for a formal ball, is not exactly what I hand in mind. I'm talking about those vast, spacious, super - sized Clutches, the ones you spotted on the runways of Louis Vuitton(top right and left), Prada and Fendi. The over sized Clutch is The Musthave. The high heeled Oxford and the beret are all very nice and fashionable, but the oversized Clutch is my favourite of all. It exudes glamour and sophistication and something of the Dynasty 80's opulence. Suitable for both day and night, how could your wardrobe exist without one?
The huge Clutches of glistening gold metal plates at Louis Vuitton(top right), certainly mark this trend as cutting edge. Prada displayed striking Clutches of mixed fabrics - grey tinged fur and maroon suede(left), ruched satin in shades of creamy gold and moss green. Fendi's runway was festival of different Clutches. Curved, gathered clutches of coloured wools, sequins, garish colours, soft textured leathers and frivolous feathers were seen to the delight of those with a handbag fetish.
What can be gathered from these runways is that bold, heavily decorated and embellished, statement Clutches of vast dimensions, is the bag of the season.

Loud Fendi Clutches prove the Super Clutch to be an ostentatious trend
A large Clutch brings your daywear to a fashion foreword place and makes evening wear fun and quirky rather then up tight grandeur. Lux crocodile skin exterior, as seen at Etro, Michael Kors and Versace(right) is the last word in Clutch fashion. Extravagant and flamboyant, the super sized Clutch is the great beginning of the perfect a/w wardrobe.
