STYLE: Clutch me if you can!

The film industry is a good place, they say, to look for the latest fashion trends. And what do you know. Everyone, just everyone, is clutching a, well, clutch purse! They are a convenient option, really. Who wants to lug around a bag with those delicate Cavallis, Emilio Puccis and Missonis?

These little beauties are basically designed to be ‘clutched’ in the hand. Some even come with straps to be slung around the shoulder. They are versatile, too, going well on everything from jeans, formal and Indian outfits.

As a fashion accessory, clutch purses are known to be evening bags. In the industry though, people prefer it 24x7. Here are some we spotted recently.



Purple perfect!
This shiny, sleek clutch is just the perfect size and makes a very pretty accessory. It adds a dash of colour that brightens up the chic black and white outfit. Sonam Kapoor knows her style!



Sleek, smart and safe!
The uber classy and sophisticated Karisma Kapoor plays it safe with a sleek black clutch, in sync with her dress and shoes.



White magic? Not really!
Never mind the colour and butterflies. But Farah Khan’s kurta could have been complemented better with a more ethnic clutch. It’s the large, distracting NY logo that takes it all out of sync.



Talk about subtlety
This clutch is broader than Shilpa Shetty’s waist! Kudos to her for attempting to start a new trend, but an unwieldy clutch can never a fashion statement make. Worse, an unwieldy, empty-looking folder-clutch. Uh-huh. Not appealing at all.



Mirror mirror
Now this is a very handy clutch. For that quick touchup, all you need to do is hold up the bag and the mirrors will do the work for you. The clutch has a Boho feel to it and goes well with Ameesha Patel’s bright dress.
