Versace has unveiled a beautiful new purse, the Baroque Embroidered Palazzo Empire.

The luxe handbag is more than just an accessory, it’s a complex work of art involving more than 150 artisanal steps to craft. Versace has continued to build on its bespoke Baroque style that first gained popularity in the ’80s.

While the leopard skins, gold chains, and shiny silk of that outrageous decade have been updated with more modern styling, the classic Versace look is still on display. The star of the piece is the unique baroque embroidery that evokes classic Italian styling; Versace manages to blend the handiwork into a modern, structured bag, though, keeping the functional sensibilities up-to-date.

The renowned fashion house shows its impeccable attention to detail with a top handle, two removable shoulder straps (in cloth or leather), and a stunning tonal Medusa clasp. It’s so striking, it might just turn passersby into stone.
