The New It Bags | Jack Rabbit Collection

By Jessica

From the fringed clutch to the plunging hobo, Jack Rabbit Collection Bags crossbreed timeless style and boundless innovation. The time-honored aesthetic could rival the work of established bag designers yet chic flourishes, like graceful ruching, are refreshingly original.

Handmade in Los Angeles by a family of artisans, each bag of the Jack Rabbit Collection embodies the designer, Mollie Culligan’s masterful command of structure and style. Made in supple Italian leather, the bags marry geometric composition with sleek subtlety.

An element of daring distinguishes Jack Rabbit Collection from the design elite. Where established designers rely on a fixed fashion aesthetic, Culligan envisages minimalist styles peppered with artful flourishes that venture onward toward the future of design.

With a masculine simplicity juxtaposed with a feminine edge, Jack Rabbit Collection bags embrace the novelty of invention with a deferential nod toward conventional luxury. Women who value tradition as much as modernity will appreciate Mollie Culligan’s ability to remain fixed on the leading edge of the new and the next.

Honored with the Gen Art Fresh Faces in Fashion Award and the International Design Award for Handbags, Culligan has gained celebrity fans in Drew Barrymore, Kate Moss, Agyness Deyn and Scarlett Johansson.

Last week, MANGO presented their Spring 2010 collection on the runways in Madrid. Scrumptious knits, safari-esque jackets and 6-inch wedges stole the show. While Fall may have just taken over our closets, consumers world-wide are already preparing for the warmer seasons ahead.

Named “Pure Light,” the Spring collection embraces all that is wonderful with airy colors and modern flair.

The ultimate Spanish design house, MANGO is popular around the world, with over 1,000 stores in 92 countries. In 2007, actress Penelope Cruz and her sister, Monica, designed a 25-piece collection that helped brand the label as a global company.

Also in MANGO news, Scarlett Johansson has paired with the company yet again for a year-long ad campaign. Stating that she loves MANGO, Johannson finds the brand perfect for everyday living, at home or abroad.

“I see MANGO as a casual firm, with lots of combinations of garments, fresh and youthful,” declared Johannson in a recent MANGO press event.
