CHIC METAL Bags That Belong To The City by Wendy Stevens




Stainless steel is no longer just the stuff of subway cars and skyscrapers.   Now, the sleek look of silvery metal lends itself to the elegant, edgy  handbags of Wendy Stevens.   Fancy a fan shaped clutch or a classic satchel with a twist?   Timeless silhouettes take on a chic new aesthetic when rendered in resilient city materials.  

Today, Stevens’ line fuses form and function in a variety of categories:  wallets, clutches, evening bags, satchels and totes.   Silhouettes range from the classical (think “slim” and Luna del Mar” models) to the whimsical (think “Penne” and “Bib” styles.)  At once substantial and surprisingly lightweight, each Wendy Stevens handbag is an enduring piece to be reached for again and again, season after season.  “Real fashion never goes out of style, and it never gets old,” says Stevens. 

Wendy Stevens handbags are sold at specialty retailers and online at www.wendystevens.com.  Prices range from $245 to $895.   The bags have been seen on the red carpet and at Origin – The London Craft Fair.    From August 24 – October 17, 2010,  a collection of 30 signature Stevens bags will be the subject of a special exhibition at the Museum of Bags and Purses in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. This fall she will likewise showcase her collection at Manhattan’s famous interior hardware design boutique, ER Butler.
