Anna Vince – New Collection – AW08 Collection
Inspired by the intricate lacquered boxed so integral to Japanese design Anna Vince has created ‘Kyoto 54′ – a collection of leather accessories that marry heritage with innovative design resulting in must-have pieces that are both stylish and covetable.
On delicate belts and precision cut clutches details taken from Japan’s oldest artforms create textures and silhouettes to delight the eye and excite the touch. Origami pleating and folds ripple across patent surfaces whilst Japanese knotting and quilting add depth to crackled and burnished metallic leather. In a sensual palette of glossy blacks, lusciously dark berry red, gleaming bronze and hard-as-nails graphite. This season also sees the introduction of larger totes bags and shoulder bags.
