It seems to me, as a fashion amateur, like all the runway looks were super-classic, and then the showroom bags were all what I can only call novelty bags. Not a lot of new designs, but sooo many birkin variants, some of which worked, like the fringe and the harness, some of which not so much, like the appliqued one.

I really want some quality time with that knit/beaded top in the earring pic above to figure out how the fabric was constructed and what it feels like. And I love the grey sweater with the super heavy knit down the front.
 
Aesthetics wise I like the Birkin with the harness but I will most likely not buy it due to security concerns. I find the idea of carrying the weight of a filled-up-to-the-brim-Clemence-Birkin crossbody (instead of in one hand) very charming - but I can’t imagine wearing the Birkin in its harness in front of my body or at the side simply because the handles will be in the way. Wearing the Birkin in its harness on my back would scream “dear thieves my bag is waiting for your business” and I like my bag too much to share it with others :lol:
I really love this 'BDSM' Birkin, not so much for the looks, but because it's so practical to carry with the shoulder strap option. I wouldn't be concerned with thieves as most people will probably think it's a fake bag or a different bag entirely which makes it even better!
