No. 16 Plum Velvet Drawstring Cocktail Bag

Originally a vintage sewing bag, but far too beautiful to stay home. This vintage plum velvet pouch has all the makings of an unexpected evening bag: rich jewel-tone velvet, a softly gathered silhouette, ruffled drawstring opening, and long coordinating cord straps.

Small, romantic, and a little unconventional—the kind of piece that looks especially good carried with something decidedly dressier.

VINTAGE CONDITION: B — GOOD
Good vintage pre-owned condition with visible signs of previous wear consistent with age and use.

THE 38 DROP
One of 38 vintage handbags individually selected for Billy Battle’s inaugural collection. No. 16 of 38. Once it’s gone, it’s gone.

Vintage pieces have lived a life before they found their way to Billy. Minor variations and signs of age are part of their history and should be expected.
