Designer Kenneth Cole Handbags & Kenneth Cole Purses

Leather Kenneth Cole Handbags:

Women had a different Kenneth Cole bag for every occasion and every fashion magazine had arguments on the proper carrying of these Kenneth Cole purses. In the reticules one would find rouge, face powder, a fan, a scent bottle, visiting cards a card case, and smelling salts. The term 'handbag' first came into use in the early 1900s and generally referred to hand-held luggage bags usually carried by men

Young girls were taught embroidery as a very necessary skill to make them marriagable and we see the rise of beautiful and unique stitched artwork in Kenneth Cole handbags. Neo-classical clothing became popular in the 18th century with a reduction in the amount of underclothing worn by women. Wearing a purse would ruin the look of this clothing so fasionable ladies started carrying their handbags which were called reticules.
