Once upon a time, in the 1980s, MCM was, like, a thing. Or at least that’s what I gather – I was still wearing diapers for much of that time period. They seemed to be fond of making logo-covered fabric bags, which were so obviously recognizable that they became easily dated when they went out of style.
After seeing this bag, it didn’t surprise me at all that Gryson had had a hand in designing it. It has a lot of the same elements that her signature line does – thick leather, functional pockets, convertible straps. It’s tailored but still has a bit of slouch, and the hardware isn’t overpowering. In essence, it looks like classic Gryson to me.
