Leonora Leopard Calf Hair Top-Handle Bag by Clemés

Meet Leonora, a limited-edition top-handle bag in real leopard-print calf hair — a hair-on calfskin whose short, dense pile catches the light in a way printed leather never does. Black Togo leather frames the top, the twin rolled handles and the base, and a gold-tone turn-lock clasp sits at the centre front. At 28 × 20 × 15 cm it holds its structure while swallowing a phone, purse, cardholder and a small make-up bag with room to spare.

Inside, two roomy compartments are split by a zip-closing centre pocket, with two slip pockets in the front section and a zipped pocket behind. The detachable, adjustable shoulder strap extends to 120 cm, so it works hand-carried for the office and crossbody for everything else. Because every hide is cut individually, no two bags carry quite the same markings. Made in Italy — styled against all-black tailoring and gold jewellery, as in the photographs, it is the single piece that finishes an outfit on its own.
