An archival evening bag defined by cascading black beaded fringe that creates dramatic movement and texture. The structured rectangular frame is finished with a metallic clasp closure and a slender shoulder strap, balancing ornate embellishment with an elegant silhouette.
Crafted in the style of 1970s couture evening accessories, the piece reflects Loris Azzaro’s signature “Couturier of the Night” aesthetic, known for shimmering surfaces and fluid, light-catching materials. Typically constructed on a lurex crochet or silk base, the design is richly adorned with tiers of glass seed beads or chain fringe, enhancing its sense of movement and theatricality.
The structured metal frame, topped with a jewel-like clasp, adds contrast to the softness of the draped fringe, reinforcing the balance between structure and fluidity.
Designed by Loris Azzaro (1933–2003), who dressed icons such as Jane Birkin and Brigitte Bardot, the bag embodies the house’s legacy of glamorous, nightlife-driven couture, where embellishment and sensual movement define the silhouette.
A striking statement piece, ideal for evening occasions, formal events, and collectible vintage styling.
