Top 5 Ornate Obsessions: Brocade, Bouclé, and Beyond

With all things Baroque, metallic, lace, bouclé, velvet, and embellished making a strong showing for Fall, arresting textures are stealing the scene. Thanks to great attention to detail and a queenly air, these clutches, positioned against leather and fur, will bring that sense of richness you’ve suddenly found yourself craving.

1. Christian Louboutin Mini Loubi Lula Lace and Satin Frame Clutch: Black lace poured over champagne satin is decadence at its most demure. Save this for a night that promises romance.
On Net-a-Porter for $1,195.

2. Lanvin Mai-Tai Metallic Brocade Clutch: Brocade is one of fall’s biggest trends, so why not blend it with a classic? Animal print invites ample exoticism.
On Net-a-Porter for $990.

3. Stella McCartney Falabella Bouclé-Tweed Clutch: The Falabella strikes again, but I just can’t say no when it’s in snappy tweed, with a metallic edge and gunmetal trim for a perfect palette.
On Net-a-Porter for $970.

4. VBH Ballerina Lace Clutch: This Ballerina is extra-elegant in a lace rendition worthy of a high-end production of Swan Lake.
At Bergdorf Goodman for $1,850.

5. Bottega Veneta Knot Intrecciato Velvet/Pitone Clutch: Oh, Intrecciato, you never disappoint. In rich velvet, with python trim, it has reached a new level of touchable-lush.
At Barneys New York for $1,750.
