In The Bag- Mary Katrantzou for Longchamp
Over the past few years London based designer Mary Katrantzou has made quite a name for herself with collections that boast signature out-of-this-world collaged prints and could be considered a harbinger of the digital print craze that has had designers of all types trying to out-do each other with the never-before-seen.
Starting Jan. 23rd fans of Katrantzou’s namesake collection and her witty use of vivid prints will now be able to get their hands on something a bit more practical than a peplum floral printed dress from Katrantzou’s collection of covetable totes for Longchamp.
Featuring festive Chinese interiors and an “East meets West” theme, they are certain to be quite the conversation starter for seasons to come and are destined to add an unexpected splash of color to your repertoire.
