The brief for a wedding
A wedding asks for a small, elegant bag you carry for a single day. It holds a phone, a lipstick, and a card, and it finishes the outfit. Buying a designer bag for one afternoon is a lot, which is why renting suits the occasion so well.
Here are bags from the Kaya collection that work for a wedding guest.
Clutches and evening bags
For a hand-held look, the Emilio Pucci Turnlock Chain Clutch at R18,000 is understated and easy to carry. The Anya Hindmarch Clutch Wallet at R13,000 keeps things minimal. For a statement, the Bvlgari Serpenti Forever Black Stingray Clutch at R92,000 is a bag few guests will have seen before.
Top-handles
If you prefer a structured shape, the YSL Cassandra Mini Top Handle at R33,000 and the Dior Diorever Top Handle at R31,000 both photograph beautifully. The Bvlgari Serpenti Forever Top Handle at R49,000 adds a little more presence.
Rent it for the day
The Prelude tier rents a single bag from R1,999, for 5 to 10 days, with no monthly membership. Authentication, wear-and-tear cover, and door-to-door delivery are included, so the bag arrives ready for the celebration.
