The Alexander McQueen Jacquard Queen Clutch is an appropriately gothic little trifle with a lot of class.

This classic clutch design is 6½"W X 3½"H X 2"D and covered in a rich, shimmering golden jacquard print. The pushlock closure is adorned with a miniature skull wearing a crown -- the McQueen "queen" -- and smiling fiendishly. The detail on the crown is a superior work of craftsmanship you won't find on a fake. That, and the soft black Italian leather lining.

This clutch is a perfect addition to a little black dress, or even a long black evening gown, and pairs equally well with colors (from far away, it just looks gold and textured). While we wouldn't put it next to a printed pattern, we think it stands up exceptionally well to other textures, so keep this in mind for nights you'll be bringing out your fur coat.

The Alexander McQueen Jacquard Queen Clutch is available from Saks Fifth Avenue for $1,595.00.
