Is Buying A Designer Handbag Or Purse Good Value?

By Lee MacRae

Handbags from famous designers are made in a large variety of designs and styles that allow women who buy them to express their individual fashion sense. Each woman can find a designer bag that ranges from the traditional handbags to the amazing romantic handbags of the stars. But designer bags also have the cost factor to them. They cost much more than a purse at a local thrift shop. So we have to ask ourselves, do you get what you pay for?

It's obvious that most people today want to make sure their hard earned money is used wisely. They need to know if a Coach handbag is worth the expanse. Is going to last? And the answer that question is yes, they are. And why do we say that?

Now it is true that you're also going to pay for the name on the handbag. But you should also realize you will pay for the quality in a brand-name product. The best bags made by Alan Stuart or Sondra Roberts use only the very best leathers.

Here is a good thing to know, top leather handbags have a fine lining material as well. The cheaper products will not have that. Makers of cheap products are always looking to lower the costs. And so they use a lower grade linings and even lower grade hardware such as the clasp. You're wasting your money. Top full grain leather's come from top grade hides and have no imperfections. This natural grain is extremely durable. It simply does not wear out and over years of use, it darkens to its full beautiful patina in various stages. Full-grained handbags are often made from the skins of young cattle and are highly sought after due to their fine quality and smooth texture.

So is it worth it to purchase a purse or handbag made by Sydney Love or Franco Sarto? Yes, you will. You will be acquiring a quality product that will finish off your outfit perfectly.

The haute couture movement, and the idea of Paris as the world's fashion capital, got started in the 18th century when French court style was imitated across Europe. Travel was also taking off at this time, meaning more people were exposed to, and desirous of imitating, the styles they saw in the French court at Versailles.

The first fashion designer who was not simply a dressmaker was Charles Frederick Worth(1826�1895). Before the former draper set up his maison couture (fashion house) in Paris, clothing design and creation was handled by largely anonymous seamstresses, and high fashion descended from that worn at royal courts. Worth's success was such that he was able to dictate to his customers what they should wear, instead of following their lead as earlier dressmakers had done. The term couturier was in fact first created in order to describe him. It was during this period that many design houses began to hire artists to sketch or paint designs for garments. The images were shown to clients, which was much cheaper than producing an actual sample garment in the workroom. If the client liked their design, they ordered it and the resulting garment made money for the house. Thus, the tradition of designers sketching out garment designs instead of presenting completed garments on models to customers began as an economy.

Seattle had it. Marc Jacobs put it on the fashion map. Kurt Cobain gave way to Kate Moss, and the early 90's are a lifetime away. Well, except in the land of the unwashed, granola-with-a-toke dudes and dudesses where it possibly never went away.
