Anastasiya Komarova - FORMS CLUTCHES

My senses of touch have heightened immensely! by peering over these come-hither clutches. For a split second there, I wanted to take a bite out of that tablet of chocolate or run my fingers over them! but alas my craving moved onto the other strange seductive pieces from the collection. The leather looks melt-able into cubes, chains, spheres and crosses resulting in a perfect distinctive finish. If you remember playing with play-dough, you could simply imagine Anastasiya Komarova, molding squishing away with play dough in her toddler years. The Russian designer’s intricate and delicate way of working with these textures demonstrates her artistic craftsmanship. These delightful pieces make you want to grab a clutch and hold on to it until the cows come home.
