Not happy with making millions of women happy with his shoes, Manolo Blahnik has decided to dive into the world of handbags. His first collection is of course intimately linked to some of his most iconic designs, although, in his words, “bigger and more striking”. See for yourself bellow!

Manolo says: “Every woman needs a jewel. Something very special and beautiful. There is nothing more stunning than a feminine hand holding a gem-like object.” But beautiful doesn’t come cheap. Lined with leather and embellished with Swarovski crystals, the bags will be priced from £1,320 to £1,480.

There are six different styles in the collection, and each ones comes in a variety of colours. From hot pink, to valentino red, hot pink, yellow or turquoise.

The collection will be available at the brand’s flagships around the world at the end of July.

What do you think? Will the firm’s bags live up to their shoes?
