london, england--global trend experts, wgsn, revealed that "colossal clutches" will be the rage next spring. though girls usually tote cute, tiny clutches for evening looks, wgsn says that their over sized counterparts will be used for every occasion and time of day. you will see them in soft leathers and textured fabrics as modeled at fendy, giles and celine. from such high end collections, this trend is expected to trickle down to mass retailers like forever 21, old navy and h&m. wgsn says, "this trend is expected to become a popular choice for all markets, in all shapes of both day and evening bags for spring/summer 2008 and continuing through autumn/winter 2008/09." if you find yourself picking up one at kohl's for $21.99, remember: you heard it on the blay report first!
