24-hour bag, Python bag, Gérard Darel

The Python is a statement all on its own: it screams superstar, but superstar with clutter, just like the rest of us mere mortals. Halle Berry is a fan of the roomy, chic Python, and we love her very A-list look, with oversized sunnies for added glam. It's glam but not OTT. Lindsay Lohan has a metallic version (erm, how many designer handbags does she own?). Maybe it helps her chauffeur spot her when she emerges from nightspots a little the worse for wear?
