DUBAI: Renowned US handbag brand Judith Leiber has unveiled a range of clutches inspired by the various flags of the GCC countries.
A sartorial celebration of Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Kuwait, Bahrain, Oman and Qatar, each clutch required weeks of handwork and thousands of Swarovski crystals. In addition to being pleasing to the eye, the bags are also functional.

Favored by the fashionable and the famous, Judith Lieber’s whimsical designs often take on playful and wonderful shapes.
