FIRST LOOK: HELMUT LANG BAGS

a new reason to clutch your favorite stuff.

In the world of fashion, Helmut Lang's somewhat of an anomaly: Despite the fact that each season boasts an array of monochromatic, draped jersey and a tailored blazer, the label continuously finds a way to reinvent their edgy, too-cool-for-school appeal.

And, yes, there's always a piece or two we “die” for.

This season, thanks to the Austrian label's debut handbag collection, things are a bit different; we're drooling over eight of the designer's latest creations.  

Combining the ease of The Row with a dose of motorcycle-chic, a la Alexander Wang, the bags are pretty much everything we've been dreaming of... and more.  So much so, we don't know how we'd ever choose between the spicy red, wrinkled-leather clutch, or the olive-green oversized shoulder bag, which could fit all of our gadgets and more.

But rather than debate the pros and cons of each, we decided to display them on internet, hoping that maybe you'd help us pick the best?
