Time changes. So be prepared for blasts from the past! This fall-winter, Italian handbag brand Francesco Biasia is bringing a high spirit of freewheeling creativity to the season, interlacing with classic femininities from different times and eras. The myriad of trend-setting handbag designs bring out the woman for all occasions. The new collection is now available at Siam Paragon and The Emporium.

Think Dark
          A dark saddlery look of a retro appeal that is revealed with timeless elegance, inspired by the androgynous style of the diva Marlene Dietrich and by the minimalism of the 1990s. The cool and unisexual re-inventiveness is the focus of this new Francesco Biasia line. Marlene Dietrich handbags in soft and tender calf and pony hides are trimmed to sleek and minimalistic contours. Deliberately discards the use of metallic ornaments, the line employs a combination of different materials to emphasize the dark and solid hues in the charm of textures. Treated with special processes, hides used in line create unique undulating effect, which, mixed with patent leather to complete a rich combination.

Punk Elegance
          Trans-era creativity has been captured in the design concept for this line. The punk look is reinterpreted to the limits of experimentation where decorativeness and an avant-garde retro look meet. Rivets, studs, zippers and other metal ornaments are the key elements for the handbags that rock out an uncommon sense of elegance, thanks to the meticulous designs of the line. The handbags in metallic colors are fashionable as well as functional with multiple pockets design creating a new generation of charm.

Radical Sport
          Influence from the 1970s and hi-tech details for this dynamic biker lady who interprets the world of travel and sports. Biker-style stitching and detailing with matelassè on ultra chic technical fabric, extra- buckles and the unmistakable Francesco Biasia logo makes the handbags, shoulder bags and bowling bags in the line of eye-catchers and head-turners!

Paradise City
          An urban paradise dedicated to free time. Handbags, shoulder bags and mid-size travel bags in this line are sleek and light. Nabuck and crocodile with a saddlery look or in the precious camouflage woven effect go just fine with carvings and bindings. Paradise City is eccentrically appealing. Dedicated to Broadway -- the idea of this line comes from a femme fatale who is a Broadway diva. Metal becomes precious, embroidered as it is in sequins on tiny event bags, suitable for many splendored occasions. Chic patent, rich-textured crocodile print, smooth satin with an origami effect and graceful stingray make soft clutches to be prestigious.
