Red Hot

Get ready to step up your fashion game as the festive season rolls around. You’ve got that new outfit, and now it’s time to get some standout accessories. The first item you’ll want to check off your list is an amazing bag – one that will turn heads for all the right reasons, hold your CNY goodies (and red packets), and yet complement everything else in your wardrobe for the rest of the year. From Italian brand Furla comes three stylish bag collections that fit the bill, and are perfect for toting around when visiting your relatives or partying with pals.

 

Simple and elegant, these bags from the Spring/Summer 2019 collection feature a stylised F that brings to mind an ancient Italian heraldic coat of arms. The Isola S Belt Bag ($520) is just what you need to complement skinny jeans and a figure-hugging top. Worn around the waist like a belt, it frees up your hands, making it a practical choice when you’re on the go. The Giola S Crossbody ($605) is a chic, sporty option crafted from materials like calfskin and suede. It goes brilliantly with a casual shirt dress, jeans or an LBD.

 

The Furla Mimi comes in two sizes, Small and Mini. The latter ($555) has a large flap and a chain-link strap, and can be worn as a cross-body or shoulder bag. It adds polish to any simple outfit, from a jeans-and-white-shirt combo to a classic shift dress or tailored pantsuit. Best of all, it’s functional and roomy. Choose from a selection of classic and eye-popping colours.

 

The iconic Metropolis bag has been given a special design in celebration of the Year of the Pig. Part of the Cruise 2019 collection, this bag ($745) from the Lunar New Year Capsule collection features a new print that has a fine graphic representation of the animal, enhanced with delicate design elements such as pink flowers. Pair this calfskin leather number with an equally playful outfit, like a floral-print dress or a cute jumpsuit. This print is also available as an interchangeable flap from the MyPlayFurla line, so you can customise your Metropolis bag to match your outfit any time of the year!
