Elegance Is Word For Now Handbags

Handsome is the word for the new handbags. Even the bags carried with practical daytime costumes will sound a note of elegance in their general finish and fine mountings. Emphasis is on suede bags in interesting shapes and expert workmanship. The more formal types announce revival of ornate frames, and many trimming touches in way of braiding and embroidery. Evening bags are all agiitter with sequin handcraft, bead embroidery and other ‘‘whimsies’’ that tune to a song of elegance that will be heard throughout the winter social season.
