A decade ago, a fun, quirky and crowd-pleasing line of crocheted
bags dubbed “The SAK” swept
the country with styles, colors and price points that appealed to
every age and fashion sensibility. Fashioned from vibrant nylon
strands in a variety of different ways, The SAK was the perfect
go-to purse, especially with college and high school girls wanting
the all purpose carryall and young career girls who wanted to enjoy
a variety of earthy-sexy looks.
At the Distinctive Assets Lounge for the
2006 American Music Awards, Elliott Luca
proved that he has become more sophisticated along with his original
core audience with a fresh new line of leather bags and totes that
ups the fashion ante with such couture styling as gold hardware,
woven leather touches and laser-cut scallop trim. The price points,
meanwhile, are still within reach ($99 to $400), making this generation
of his bags ideal go-to bags for work and weekend, but with an added
dimension of elegance. Better still, Mr. Luca is also as much in
touch with world issues as he is with his fans. There is a 2007
spring collection of white bags where the lion’s share
of the profits will go to (name of charity).
