Creepy Couture Clutches

The Skull Leather Art Purse is a Sinister Statement Piece

— July 25, 2012 — Fashion
Skulls are an ultra-chic fashion statement and Brian Griffin has made an incredibly authentic one into a leather purse. The skull leather art purse is currently available in oxblood, but there is soon to be more options, including red and naturally colored leather.

This totally badass purse is made from leather and fiberglass/resin to make sure it holds its shape. Griffin advises too handle this piece with care and not treat it or stuff it with the same things you’d usually lug around. This is more then just a purse, it’s a total piece of art work that brings some spook to an evening.

No one’s going to mess with you if you’re carrying this sinister clutch. The purse truly looks as though you’re transporting some human remains. So if you feel like making a statement, this is the way to do it.
Trend Themes
