A Tale Of The Furry Tails...Over the past few seasons I have noticed the rise of the '
furry tail' bag charms in fashion. Often than not, they become highly coveted 'pets'... a cuddly companion to accompany your beloved arm candies. These 'touch-inducing' bag accessory can be traced all the way back to Fall Winter 2007
(all thanks to Gucci's Frida Giannini) as a smaller version endearingly hooked onto the bags at
Gucci's Fall Winter 2007 mens collection. What a touch of winter
luxe that sends me all the way to Paris to hunt one down for myself.
Below: I first notice our 'furry friends' debuting in Gucci's Fall Winter 2007 mens collection... smaller in size and in shades of brown to mimick the 'tails' of the racoon...
Fast forward to
Spring Summer 2010, the full glory of these furry tails exploded into fashion stardom
(not to mention collector's frenzy) with
Louis Vuitton's multi-coloured and 'bank account' draining versions, bigger and better! I hear many were disappointed as these
LV furry tails were some of the hardest to track down then. Demand was overwhelming despite their astronomical price tags.
Below: Louis Vuitton took these little 'furry cuties' to fashion stardom in Spring Summer 2010, multiplying them in size, splashing them in hot pinks and greens! Everyone wants them!
If anyone misses out on these charming
furries, Fret not...
There is light at the end of the 'fashion tunnel'... Our furry tail friends are back with another 'season of
vengeance'. Thanks to
Phoebe Philo who proposes these furry bag charms as a key accessory for her
Céline Pre-fall 2011 collection. A must-have in the collection that is seen on every look, fashionably attached to
Céline's delectable clutches and bags. Call it a new level of minimalist
luxe. I adore her black and white pared down interpretations.
I am signing up for one right this moment... anyone else joining me?:-P Winter 2011 please come fast!!!
