The Holiday season is now officially upon us (oh yea, decorations are up around my house!) and gold handbags are all the rage. If you are not as keen on buying a completely gold bag, opt for a bag with gold details. A new hot bag is the Fendi Zucca Leather Boston Bag with Palazzo Print. The golden metallic palazzo print is a hit for me, but the combination of it placed on top of the Zucca print does not make me love the bag. The combination reminds me of 3-D books; you remember crossing your eyes and staring at the pictures. Yet the representation of the Palazzo print pays tribute to the neo-classical architecture of Fendi’s Palazzo flagship store. Shape wise there is a Louis Vuitton Speedy vibe, measuring 9.75″ x 9.5″ x 4.25″. Golden metallic leather pull tab and leather handles cap off this Fendi number. I have heard this bag is hot but I am not feeling it, just too busy for me and the Palazzo tribute is offset by Zucca print. Prove me wrong and tell me how hot the bag truly is. Buy it through eLuxury for $845.
Hey Megs,
I’m not really crazy about this bag either, it seems to me the designs took chunks out of other bags, as you mentioned the vuitton speedy shape and lock, the key tag looking very hermes and the print on top of the zucca monogram looks like how prada used their old brand sheild logos.
But on the bright side it does have a nice overall look to it but i would rather buy something else.
I agreed with you Meg, the design just look too “busy”.
I agree too.
There’s some nicer Fendis at this link, see what you think of them.
