The most exciting time of the year is upon us already and the festive fervor is conspicuous everywhere around – in the heavy discounts that online and offline stores are showering upon us, the new collections designers are hurrying up to launch to be in time for the festivities, the bonuses and the frenzied shopping! I am ready too with my post to help you choose the best party bags to go with your ethnic finery. Read on and discover with me!
To begin with, what are the requirements of a party bag? First off, It should be small in size to hold just the essentials without weighing you down. Next, it should be ornate but not over the top or in-your-face. In other words, it should draw admiring glances not disapproving ones! It could have embroidery, prints, metallic tones, embellishments, hand paintings, beads – oh, the list is virtually endless. Trust our talented designers to come up with indigenous ideas! Lastly, it should have a mechanism to keep you hands-free to enjoy and participate in the goings-on of the event – either a shoulder chain or a wrist loop.
The types of bags to usually fall in this category are – clutches & potlis, and sometimes top-handle bags. We are listing down our choicest designers so that you can take your pick from their wide portfolio.
Crazy Palette
Combining her 3D animation background with an acute sense of fashion, Rishma Lath creates exquisite hand painted art on her clutch bags. We discovered Crazy Palette back in 2014 and there’s never been anything repetitive in her work, except being remarkable.
