Tarot and fashion meet again – this time in handbags. The Italian fashion company Furla has just introduced a new line of handbags inspired by imagery from the Tarot.
From what I can see, the Ace of Cups is the featured pattern, but there are also designs that involve the Moon, and a Knight.
The designs aren’t from any deck I recognize, but they’re sweet.
The Ace is made up of three houses that look like little bird-houses, and there’s lots of roses all around them.
The knight doesn’t seem to have a particular suit but he’s standing atop an orange tiger-like creature so I’ll call him the Knight of Wands.
Only the Moon appears traditional, and I only saw it in one design that also included what looked to be astrological imagery.
The bags don’t come cheap, ranging from €40 to €245. But with all those Aces of Cups, I can hardly resist.
What could be better than carrying around a stylish bag of new love?
