Harker's newest accessories make the apron forms worn on top of dresses from the collection look like they are flattened versions of the clutches. Despite the femininity of glitter, Harker's collection has a sharp angularity to it. The clutches return to a bit of the sweeter side with [stylized animal ears](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hello-kitty-and-kate-spade), paws and tails in shapes that complement the use of glitter. The young designer has had her work featured in editorials by Bullett Magazine, Italian Vogue, [Dazed Digital](http://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dazed-digital-central-st-martins) and Clash Magazine. If you're one who loves all that glitters, her new clutches will surely appeal to your inner magpie.
