Maison Martin Margiela “Chain Main Wristlet”

First of all, we’re talking about a Belgian fashion designer who has been working for some time for Jean Paul Gaultier before releasing his first collection under his own label “Maison Martin Margiela” in 1988. The best, and most often used word to describe his designs is “artisanal” and we can safely say he’s a visionary.

Second of all, I will be honest and say I’m not very much in the know when it comes to his designs. I did, from time to time, see some of his handbags, items from his clothing line here and there, but it’s not like he’s on my list of the designers I pay close attention to.

You can take a look at his recent collection of men/women clothes, accesories and shoes at eLuxury.com to bring his point of view a bit closer to your hearts, or at least, if not closer to your hearts, then comprehensible to your senses.

After taking a close look at what he thinks women should accesorize their outfits with, this is the only bag that caught my eye and in a way that I couldn’t stop thinking of it. I didn’t write this post immediately on purpose. I figured it’s better if I let my impressons settle down first. Other bags are also nice, but this one really stands out among them, no doubt. At first glance it has a shape of a cosmetic case, but the wrist strap and little metal studs give its purpose away. This one isn’t made to carry your make-up-essentials… This one is made to steal the show wherever you show up and don’t think you’ll achieve a lay-low look with it. It’s armor gives it an attitude which makes this bag ideal for those situations when you really want to make a statment. The length of the grained leather wrist strap is adjustable from 6″ to 7″ on a metal chain, it is zip top closed and the interior is fine textile lined with a zip pocket.
