Carlos Falchi makes handbags for the masses with Target and HSN collabos

You’ve probably seen Target’s previous handbag designer collaborations (Hayden Harnett, Loeffler Randall, Felix Rey, Anya Hindmarch, Devi Kroell and Botkier) and Carlos Falchi is up next. The designer of exotic python and crocodile luxury bags has partnered with the Bullseye brand to create its eighth limited-edition accessories collaboration. The Falchi for Target line will be in stores and online starting November 1, and will consist of faux snakeskin handbags that will come in jewel tones like plum and teal with contrasting shades of brown, black, and gray, according to WWD. Some handbags will incorporate collage or patchwork techniques. It’s refreshing to see that luxury designers like Falchi realize that the recession is real, and these days hardly anyone feels comfortable shelling out thousands of dollars for a handbag.

 
And starting today, October 22, Falchi will celebrate the expansion of his collection Chi by Falchi on HSN. Not only does this include an expanded selection of handbag, but also new categories such as outerwear (inspired by vintage designs and featuring signature Falchi details), shoes (incorporating mixed leathers, textures, and exotics that Falchi is known for), jewelry and scarves, both inspired by Falchi’s love of bright colors and rich and luxurious fabrics, and sweaters in bold animal prints.

Falchi said: “To me there is no greater satisfaction when a client wears and loves our product. I want to bring the best of Falchi design with incredible quality at fantastic value for money.”

See Falchi on HSN at 12am, 1am, 1pm and 8pm
