The designer alternative : tapestry handbags

Not everyone will appreciate a leather or leather look handbag, and tapestry handbags represent a stylish alternative. It is especially prominent with the resurgence of vintage handbags as modern day accessories. In the 1960s and 70s, tapestry handbags were a very important element of style, the designers of the day heading more towards man made and alternative natural materials than the old classic leather look.

These days, there are two movements away from leather. On the one hand, people are becoming more and more aware that leather comes at a price for the animal concerned, and that it is this realization that is turning them away from it and towards man made fibers. On the other hand, we have a movement towards plastics and rubbers as from certain design houses : tapestry handbags represent a kind of compromise.

The problem with many man made fibers is that they do not look natural in the slightest, which is why tapestry handbags help to provide an alternative to leather that still looks natural. It is also easy to mistake some man made materials for leather. Despite the material not being leather, there are those who will shy away from anything that even looks like leather because they still see it as hypocrisy.

So, for people who find themselves in this position, tapestry handbags provide a stylish alternative. While they might not be as practical as plastics – being more difficult to maintain, they will certainly attract attention of the right kind, just like leather.
