Bag
Most of the time I find bags with lots of zippers tacky. However, I find this Gotham satchel quite appealing. The only hardware you can find on this bag is just zippers and one big zipper pull on the main compartment that has Donna Karan engraving. I think it is very wise to limit the amount of hardware. The design clearly states that this bag is all about the zippers. Additional hardware will just turn this bag to hardware overload.
One thing that I appreciate about this Gotham satchel is that it has just the right amount of rock and roll flavor to it. This means you don’t have to dress like a rock star to be able to carry this bag. As to the zippers, I must say that I prefer the bag with all the zippers open. I think it gives the bag a fuller shape and more texture. Pre-order from Neiman Marcus for $1,495
Many Botkier fans have asked me about the Botkier Taylor from the Fall 2009 collection. As you might already know, the Botkier Fall 2009 collection is very rocker chic. The Taylor bags bring the rocker chic flavor through their one-of-a-kind tassels design. I finally have the following information about the bags that I would love to share with all of you.
