Snake bite

The latest Da Milano bag collection takes inspiration from the slithering serpent

Floral patterns and polka dots are passe. Enter faux snakeskin, the sexy new thing to hang over the shoulder. A bold new design in bags is as wild and basal as it gets, even as it exudes sophistication and uber chic style. A peek.

Hisss-tory

The line has been rolled out as part of the Spring Summer 2009 collection. Made of super fine leather, the hide-inspired numbers are available in signature, chic and contemporary styles. There are classic day bags, stylish satchels, shoulder bags, hand totes and evening clutches to pick from. Extra convenience is added in the form of zippered compartments, stylised buckles and comfortable handles.

Available in themes like the African safari, forest and animal prints, the choice of colour tones are extended to sunflower yellow, royal purple, grey black, navy blue, green, red, beige and ivory. Sheer jungle joy.
