Italian fashion label Pinko debuted its Love Bag last summer, and for spring/summer 2017, the brand reinvents the handbag with a range of cool new textures, patterns and appliqués, undoubtedly inspired by the eclectic new wave of fashion spearheaded by Alessandro Michele of Gucci. But don’t mistake these for copies — the bold, punchy designs adorned with swallow motifs make the Pinko Love Bag a statement purse in its own right.
