Hi!
It's Elizabeth Bernstein, the senior merchandising director of handbags and accessories merchandising director handbag beneath a
for portero.com.
We are here today at Lincoln Center where Fall/Winter Fashion Week 2014 just
recently took place.
One of the most important colors from the shows that you'll see in stores,
in fall winter 2014 is the color
Vermillion red. We have a lot of vermilion red bags on portero.com
and I would say brands like Hermes and Chanel have the best red colors.
So if you go online now you can buy these ahead of the rush
and make sure that you have the right color for the upcoming season.
Another trend that's back is the
classic bucket bag. You can definitely find them on Portero because
Chanel and Louis Vuitton has been making them for the last forty years and
they are
always relevant. Disco sparkle was a huge trend.
You could definitely spice up an outfit with a Judith Leiber or a sequined
evening bag. And also we saw a ton
of fur on the runway this year, it was huge.
On Portero we're always interested in current trends and
how we can tie them in with the classic pieces on our website. This season we were lucky enough
to see Bibhu Mohapatra, Tommy Hilfiger and
the infamous Marquesa shows.
We were able to speak with some attendees and some models from the runway shows
to find out what their favorite accessories and handbags were, since
street style is super relevant this season.
We're here with Marina and Mariana. We're gonna ask them a few questions about their
favorite bags.
So tell me what your favorite handbag is right now. I think every girl's favorite
is Chanel.
For sure. Absolutely. And yours? Probably Chanel, I tend to like more the vintage Chanels
than, like, the "It" ones.
Oh, it's my new Celine bag. It's like with three different colors and I love
it because you can combine it with different looks and it goes with
everything basically. I love shoulder bags and totes bags so I can carry all my things when I go to work.
If you could own one hand bag in the entire world what would it be?
It would probably be Hermes.
What would your dream handbag be, if you could wear one bag every day for the
rest of your life what would that be?
Hmm, good question. I don't know which one to pick, I have so many.
Maybe the Hermes one. It's the classic one, and it's--
yeah. Hermes is one of my favorites, too.
My taste changes every day so right now I'm gonna say the Saint Laurent
Buddy bag, that's my next purchase.
Um, I think I'll still go with, I still would stick with Chanel, vintage Chanel.
And also do you like to collect vintage jewelry, watches, handbags
et cetera, I know you like handbags but
tell me about your accessories. I do love to collect vintage. I wish I had more
space for it.
Only trouble is it's hard to collect it all, but yes I used to buy a lot.
And what do you guys think about portero.com? Portero's amazing they have
great handbags for everyone.
Thanks for joining us for Fall/Winter Fashion Week 2014.
We hope that you find some of the trends that you liked in the shows on portero.com.
