Top 12 Clutch Purses of 2008

Filed under: Handbags

We at Luxist always strive to bring you the loveliest things in the world. One object of desire we can't get enough of is the clutch purse.

Here is a gallery of the top 12 most fascinating, original, and exciting clutch purses of 2008. This year we saw a return to glitz and glamor, with many bejeweled bags lined in dark velvets and satins. Smaller trends included feathers and art deco inspired design. Click on the prices in the gallery to see full descriptions of the items.

Our one repeat offender (or delighter) in the clutch purse top 12 was Fendi, and so we'll give them our main photo. Here you see the Fendi Peacock Evening "To You" Bag, an unbelievable find worth a small fortune of $1,680. Although we weren't sure about this look back in January, this bag proved to be a trendsetter in material and style.
