Marc Jacobs Collection “Quilted Colorblock Soft Pouch”
I absolutely love the whole Quilted Colorblock SS collection from Marc Jacobs. All of the bags in the collection have that special feminine touch to them which makes them very alluring. They make you put your hands on them and not let go, ever! The leather is of superior quality and soft both on the eye and to the touch. The combinations of colors used on these bags do a wonderful job giving them a distinct look that makes them stand out among other collections released this season. Victoria Beckham had the Mika Bag from this collection with here everywhere for some time and did a great job putting these fabulous bags in the spotlight.
I’ve heard a lot of comments on this collection and not all are positive. Some are saying these bags have that “old lady” touch to them, and come to think about it, that’s true. It’s just that I don’t see it as a bad thing. Marc Jacobs is well known for his wild combinations of styles and his talent to make the most impossible combinations imaginable work. Quilted Colorblock defintely isn’t your everyday handbag collection, we’ve got Marc by Marc Jacobs for that. If you consider this collection to be a bit too unusual or simply not you, you can always start with the Mika Bag or this pouch since they are a bit less overwhelming due to their size.
The key signatures of this collection are the quilt detail on the leather and the large shoulder chain with leather weaven through it. We’ve already seen that on other MJ bags, but this time he decided to go for an oversized approach, and if you ask me, he did a great job because it emphasizes the soft and and gently slouchy look. He did something similar on the Louis Vuitton Monogram Olympe bags with the oversized shoulder strap and the plaited leather… In fact, the whole look somehow reminded me of the Monogram Olympe… Anyway…
As I said, this bag is made of subtle grained leather with a quilt detail. The top is in beautiful a contrast to the brown leather bag body. Featuring gusseted sides and a pleated front which give the bag it’s feminine look, the Quilted Colorblock really won my heart. Interior is fine textile lined and featured with patch pocket. I really like it!
