Clear Trend: Transparent Bags & Shoes

Clear trend has been a thing for a few season now. The transparent bags and shoes popped up here and there during fashion shows not only for next season but also for Fall 2012. Think Chanel Fall 2012 RTW. The clear heels and clutches made appearance on the show bringing an interesting touch to the collection. This time around the clear clutches or even footwear are rare but they subtly make an appearance.

Burberry Prorsum has showcased a Blaze Bag, a clear handbag that comes in red, blue, pink, purple, and golden yellow with textured handles, corners, and straps. The clear clutches made their appearance at Anna Sui and Gucci.

So how to rock the clear trend? Think transparent bags or a structured hardcase clutches, crystal-like faceted heels a la Chanel, and transparent jewelry, and accessories. If you don’t want to show off the contents of your handbag or clutch you can still rock this trend by opting for clear designs with an inner bag made of non-transparent materials.

The accessories like bracelets and rings can too be made of plexiglass, acryl, and other clear materials. What do you think about this trend?
