"Shoes and handbags are extremely important, they can make or break the outfit. I always design for a certain woman who is very confident, sophisticated, loves fashion and isn't afraid to laugh at herself every now and then," said Atwood regarding the collection. "What I love about Gilt is that it has a sophisticated customer and it brings an energy and excitement to online shopping. Gilt couldn't be a better partner."
Gilt.com will feature four main styles from the collection - the Carla, Theodora, Kate and Iside. The Carla is a basic envelope clutch that comes in an array of materials and colors from cobalt blue suede to color blocked snakeskin perfect for Spring. The Theodora and Iside are both a miniaudiere hardcase constructed from inlayed enamel that feels great in the hand. Rounding out the collection is the Kate, made of leopard print pony hair, it is also a clutch with a zipper closure and front snap pocket. The collection was created to be able to take a woman from the most glamorous event to a dinner at a small sidewalk cafe. Styles range between $1,050 and $1,850.
