Maison Martin Margiela loves to fool our eyes and toy with our notions of what things should traditionally be, and here’s an instance where they’ve been highly successful on both fronts. This super-adorable wristlet clutch is shaped like a soft sunglasses case, a silhouette you rarely – if ever – see in actual bag form.
But forget about your sunnies for now. With two long, slender compartments, this delightfully streamlined slice of python-stamped cobalt leather is perfect for just a phone and credit cards. The unusual clasp makes it feel special, as does the textural effect. I’m tempted to just keep this in my bigger bag to use as a convenient pouch or wallet alternative, then pull it out and carry on its own when I want to shed the tote. Dual function meets great form!
If you’re feeling this clutch, or are after something off on thecorner.com, here’s a discount code for 15% off one order: TCSPRING15. Some cash off makes a new spring purchase that much sweeter. Maison Martin Margiela clutch on thecorner.com for $985.
Pair with: A bigger bag like BOYY’s chain-trimmed leather tote ($925) is just the thing to toss Margiela’s clutch inside. In soft ivory, it’s pure spring. With a chain-topped handle, it’s got a good dose of edge.
