The New, Why-Didn't-I-Think-of-That Way to Carry All Your Bags

It takes more than a Bauhaus reference to impress fashion people, so when the multi-exclamation-marked reactions to Wednesday night's Proenza Schouler show started streaming in, we sat up and paid attention to the lace-up details, the patent leather, and, most of all, to the uncommon way the chain-handle Hava bags were presented.
