For girls who grew up in the 1950s and 1960s, bags designed by Enid Collins were the ‘must-have’ item. Everyone who had the means would rush out to acquire one of these lovely handbags. Mothers preferred the bucket bag style, while the younger set inevitably went for the popular box bag.

The quirky, brightly-coloured designs were attention-getting, and with good reason. With their shiny rhinestones and catchy design names, they are just as popular today as they were when newly created. The distinctive motifs of Enid’s bags are certain to enhance any vintage (or vintage-inspired) wardrobe.
