The Gucci Snakeskin replica Hobo with a whole skirt of tassels.

Ok, I really have no idea how the snake feels but it’s often the first question that comes to my mind whenever trying to sort out if I like a snake, or alligator, or fur design. Often I see the animal first, then the bag. With these latest snakeskin Gucci handbags though, (and this is literally hours after I saw them appear on a replica handbags site), I see all fashion…very little of the poor little creature who’s natural outfit, has become my fashion craving.

Is it Fashionable?

I love this question. I’m sure this collection is one of the more divisive of the latest from luxury designers. I could see it being called anything from hideous to sensational. Personally I’m a three quarters in the direction of fabulous. Exotic is totally in. And Gucci handbags pull it off far better than any other designer (with the sometimes exception of Prada). Among replica handbags, Gucci is pretty much the only designer you’re going to see copied with designs this extravagant.

So far I’ve seen these Gucci replica handbags in the new snakeskin:

• A Pelham
• A Pochette
• A Clutch
• A Messenger
• A Hobo (in picture above)

What I thought was particularly interesting about this collection was that it’s not your typical extravagance. You might expect clutches and shoulder bags for ultra special occasions in full on python skin, but the focus in the 2009 snakeskin is utility. We’re talking unisex side bags, backpacks, and a very utilitarian new Pelham. I’d love to see a Gucci replica handbags vendor bring out this backpack below. It’s just so bizarre and appealing to me.

Gucci Replica Pelham handbag in Snakeskin

One of my favorite replica handbags from this Gucci collection right off the bat is the New Pelham. It’s kinda halfway between utility and glamour, in a nice way I think. The snakeskin is eye catching, exotic…all the things it’s supposed to be, without being overbearing.

Here are the specs:

• Snakeskin leather exterior
• Chocolate brown leather trim
• Removable shoulder strap and handle
• Golden hardware and front clasp
• Black embossed canvas interior
• Interior zipper pocket
• Dimension: 15″ x 3″ x 13.5″

2009 Gucci Snakeskin Replica: Yea or Nay?

I’d give this collection a score of 7.5/10. It’s not the most interesting thing I’ve seen this year, but it’s certainly unique to Gucci handbags. Glamorous, useful, sexy, practical—a fine balance.
