Yeah, they weren't kidding by "oversized", this thing is ridiculously huge!! But such is the trend these days and the fact that it is alligator just makes it all the more ostentatious. I have trouble with the practicality of carrying around such a giant clutch, I mean, I have a hard enough time with a normal size clutch because it requires me to dedicate an entire arm and hand to transporting it around, so one as big as this would require both arms and hands (as seen in the picture with the model)? This is not a cocktail party clutch, you will knock over the hors doeuvres tray and spill your martini for sure. So when do you use it? During the day? You lug this thing around with all your papers in it and it gets so heavy you have to cradle it both arms like a baby?!!? Is that chic and fancy? OK, size aside, I do like this clutch with the ruffled detail using the tail. The use of the large and small scale to create texture and interest is note worthy. It is also a limited edition of 10 exclusively at Bergdorf Goodman and each is numbered and signed by the designer. Kinda cool but not cool enough to make me want to look like a fool carrying this thing around. $7500 and takes 8 weeks to deliver because they are made to order (but if it's limited edition, why not just make the 10 up front? Or perhaps in the back of their mind they don't think even 10 people will buy this) You can order through
Bergdorf Goodman.
