Bally previewed Gismar, a hand-stitched calfskin leather case for the MacBook Air during Paris fashion week.
Available in black or white with a signature Bally clasp, the sleek envelope design wouldn’t look out of place in the clutches of Vogue editrix Anna Wintour.
Leathergoods company Bally, which started out as a Swiss silk ribbon weaving outfit in 1821, has been trying to rejuvenate its prestigious, if slightly creaky, brand. Designer Brian Atwood’s third collection launched this fall was decidedly more “Hotel California” than Silversea Cruise.
Available in Bally stores worldwide in December, price not available.
Thin is in.
