Thom Browne's animal purses have arrived as part of the designer's zoo-inspired collection. Mini bags are back in style, and with it comes a range of contemporary takes on the nostalgic silhouettes. This newly introduced collection offers a more playful iteration of a bag released in 2016, this time presenting a range of animal-inspired purses for the wearer to enjoy.
Some of the bags include giraffes, elephants, hippos and more, enabling the wearer to sport their favorite animal in a creative way. One of the standouts from the line, the Sheep bag, is fitted with a fuzzy fabric. Meanwhile the elephant-shaped bag features fabric tusks.
Other animal bags in the lineup include monkeys, pigs, bears, roosters, and foxes.
