Today, the fur clutch is warmed by those who want to stand out from the crowd and create around themselves a halo of some mysterious lady who lost herself between times: in the courtyard of the 21st century, and the clutch is an exclusively medieval accessory that gained incredible popularity among the rich europes in 1500. By the 19th century, the coupler had been forgotten by women of fashion and it was possible to meet it only in theatrical productions, the action of which took place in those distant historical times.
But since designers, apparently, very fond of the phrase: "everything new is a long-forgotten old", then sooner or later the clutch will return. She has already returned, only in part, because a couple of years ago at the winter show Chanel you could see thin models dressed in rich fabrics a la noble or baroness with bags-transformers that easily turn into a muff.
There is nothing surprising in the fact that the clutch has not yet gained wide popularity among the masses, because the pace and way of life of the 16th century, nevertheless, differs from the modern: we do not have a coachman who would invite to the carriage and drive up , and even then, at best), little clothes that fit perfectly with the clutch (long lush dresses are rarely relevant even at parties), and there is not so much time to fiddle with the clutch (gloves and mittens are much more comfortable in this sense).
So, let's look at the clutch from all angles - maybe it will be possible to solve this mysterious accessory and understand if it makes sense today to put on a clutch?
Fur hand clutch in high fashion
Like many other things, the coupler received a ticket for a return from the 16th to the 21st century precisely because of the high fashion that looks odd from afar, and only close - truly high.
The closest example of the podium return coupler was organized by fashion designers Chanel. But in fact, if you look at the history of fashion of the 20th century, then periodically there were collections with the presence of a coupling. The most popular Russian designer, bravely pushing couplings into the masses - Vyacheslav Zaitsev .
In order not to stop at each show with the participation of the coupling, we list the designers in whose collections the coupling appears, and then again disappears for several years:
- Chanel;
- Slava Zaitsev;
- Anteprima;
- Osman Yousefzada;
- Zac Posen;
- Chado Raph Rucci;
- Hermes .
Perhaps the clutch will soon become more widespread, despite its questionable relevance in our days, because the image of a Russian noblewoman or elements of this image is increasingly found in fashion - both Western and Eastern.
Warm clutch in ordinary life
The sheepskin clutch today is more relevant than other types of fur, because it is very warm. If the coupling is used as a decoration and an accent in the image, then it is made from another fur, more presentable or bright. By the way, for the coupling it is not necessary to use fur - there are models made of leather.
The sleeve-bag today looks more appropriate, because it combines the modernity and echoes of bourgeois chic.
You can find a clutch more often for beginning designers who like to experiment, but big clothing companies rarely pamper fans with outlandish models. Of course, the coupler can be purchased from famous designers who are closely related to the words "high fashion".
Muff from fur in art
If you look at the pictures of great artists, then in the category of the most mysterious and mysterious image with the participation of the coupling, of course, will get Ivan Kramskoy - his "Unknown", written in 1883. Around the figure of this lady intertwined many myths - the artist did not leave anything that would shed light on the question of who became its prototype, but it is possible that this was the idea of the picture. Intrigue and mystery is manifested not only in the unknown and in the name, but in the whole image of the girl - dark halftones, mysterious look and closedness is manifested in everything: only the person who expresses majesty and sadness is open. The coupling, of course, gives the right accent in this mysterious picture.
