Robertson’s Reads | It’s in the Bag | By: Winifred Gallagher
LOVE this book.
Though not as orderly or thorough as some fashion history books, Winifred Gallagher does a stellar job of looking at the handbag through a pair of Tom Ford shades from a variety of perspectives.
She includes fun and thoughtful interviews with style gurus like Candy Pratts-Price and Ellen Goldstein-Lynch, asking questions that I’d personally probe given the chance. And unlike some q and a’s in fashion books today, this guide reads like a juicy novella, full of tips and tricks to finding the perfect bag.
From Chanel to Hermes, Gallagher does her insightful duty researching why ‘it’ bags are on the arms of the world’s most powerful women, and why these women choose to carry the bags they do.
The perfect pick-up read to carry in your purse.
