New from Mulberry: the Suffolk bag

published 27 September 2013

The new addition to Mulberry's bag range, the Suffolk is a rare gem - it's innovative and traditional at the same time. Mulberry is a synonym for timeless elegance and the new Suffolk bag captures the essence of the company's style perfectly, while introducing innovative design elements.

The Suffolk is a structured bag with a top frame that's reminiscent of classic English handbags. This is a design departure for Mulberry but it doesn't feel like it: the new touch is beautifully combined with signature elements, such as the stylish postman's lock. The result is a chic, understated bag that still looks quintessentially Mulberry.

The Suffolk comes in classic calf leather (in off white, black and emerald) or in the beautifully texturised shrunken calf (in ginger, or midnight blue, above), as well as printed hair calf (in midnight blue) and stunning ostrich (in pheasant green).

Mulberry's new bag is as practical as it is beautiful: it can be worn in the hand or on the shoulder, thanks to a detachable shoulder strap, and has internal belt straps to adjust the size of the main compartment.

Mulberry also carries a smaller version of the Suffolk (above) in classic, shrunken or hair calf, with prices starting from £1,350. For more details, visit the Mulberry website.
