Teenage star launches new bag
25/11/2008
Teenage actress Hayden Panettiere has put her name to a new clutch bag, the Hayden Clutch, in Italian calfskin for US retail group Dooney & Bourke. The closure is a 24-carat gold lion’s head, reflecting Ms Panettiere’s star sign. She said she felt this was a more classy personal touch than putting her name on the bag.
She commented: “I wanted it to be kind of funky, and more of a clutch for going out. I love class, with a little edge. I love a shape that is classy.”
She added that she had done the original drawings for the new bags, and had specified details such as the number and positioning of the pockets inside. She said she was really excited about the way the bags had come out and would insist on having one in each available colour (black, fuschia, ivory, purple, red and royal blue) for her own use.
The retail price will be $295.
Connecticut-based Dooney & Bourke has its flagship store in New York City and other outlets in cities such as Boston, Las Vegas and Dallas.
