With over 500 colour photos, this new fully revised and expanded edition of Bags offers a unique survey of the bag in all its forms: handbags, travel bags, make-up and evening bags, pouches, purses and chatelaines, tie pockets, wallets and letter cases, reticules and more, covering virtually all styles and materials. The book includes a historical section, which explores the history of the bag from the late Middle Ages until today, and a section of current designs are spotlighted. Space has been devoted to both exceptional and rare bags, and to the modern classics and bags from major fashion houses and leading designers.
