Fashion Week Handbags: Versace Fall 2011

I’m as surprised by this as you are, but the handbags from Versace Fall 2011 are more than a little great. The big, soft hobos in various textures and color combinations aren’t on-trend or directional or any of those other fashion buzzwords, but they do look like they’d be functional and wearable and all of those other buzzwords that matter to people who actually need to use their handbags.

My favorites were the quilted and re-quilted versions with plenty of decorative stitching, but it would be difficult not to also enjoy the burgundy crocodile and blue python iterations. And what of the bedazzled Medusa-head evening bag? I even loved it, if only for its unabashed, enthusiastic commitment to being as Versace as humanly possible.

I love the Medusa head bag. It’s weird and wonderful.

I like #9 and 10. Beautiful.
The medusa head is a little out there, and I really like it. Who wouldn’t love a blinged out Medusa head bag.

Love the medusa bag! All are so artistic and beautiful!

I don’t like Verscae handbags a lot…But the first two pics, of the hobo mdoel, you showed are cool. I don’t like croc print but the shape, colors and aestethic is really trendy!

The fabric/leather and design is pretty but the bag is a little weird.

These are interesting, but I need to actually see and carry one to really decide if I love them or not. Certainly got my interest.
