Nobody knows exactly how long the trend will last mini crossbody, but put on record as hoping that this figure remains around a basic wardrobe for years to come. Not only minibags pleasantly functional, but is easily modified to embody almost every style, from hippie to industrial. In this case, placing the Gucci 1973 Small Shoulder Bag is clear – it’s all about retro throwback.
This bag is not a surprise to anyone that saw the looks from the Gucci Autumn 2010 runway show – I would have stuck it look as slower 60s than early 70s, but the shapes and retro color palette was ubiquitous throughout the bags featured in the show. Change Gucci logo is the touch really completes the look.
My only real criticism of the design is that I’d probably have done most of the chain – a piece of skin where the bag will sit on the shoulder is always an appreciated nod to utilitarian comfort, but imagine that this bag was meant to be worn atop a layer or two of cold weather clothing anyway, making it less important detail. The olive color works beautifully with gold hardware, and sub-$ 1,000 leather Gucci bags are easy to find as of late. This alone may be small, but do not underestimate her style.
