IT Bags

Bags have a strange effect on women.

Although they were made just to carry our things outside the house, we can't help it throwing in them more than necesary including our hopes and dreams.

The bag industry have always been benevolent with us producing wonderful items to feed our desires.



New York is one of those cities where you could, and can find almost everything, and when "almost" wasn't enough, you could always order the pieces to Paris and soon you would have them here.

The Museum of the City of New York is showing part of its collection of bags dated from mid 17th Century to nowadays, with items from Schiaparelly to Cartier.

The show is very small, very, very small, but if you don't get dissapointed by the size.- size doesn't matter, you will enjoy this little collection of masterpieces.

A nice selection of Peticules (the French "Ridicules"), Pouch Bags, Evening Bags, Clutch Bags, Black Bags (among them one original Chanel), Beaded Bags... from other times .

It is, as i said, tiny, but very impressive. Reminding us the Ladie's Mile Distric times in New York with Edith Warton and friends and the original Tiffany & co. location in Union Square.
