Vintage Inspirations: Clutch Bags-Vintage Fashion Parade for the week of November 6th

Vintage Inspirations: Clutch Bags


When larger bags are over much
Or you're looking for a vibrant touch
A clutch bag is a fashion crutch
For holding just a phone and such

With vintage clutch as inspiration
Modern makers take dictation
Sometimes losing in translation
While vintage bags are a sensation

Judith Leiber, Dorset Rex
Whiting Davis, Plastiflex
Beaded, Corde and Perspex
At VFG we pay respects

Sparkling jewels and/or leather
Occasionally even fur or feather
A vintage clutch no matter whether
Casual, formal—looks put together!
