T. Anthony's Simple Architecture and Bold Colors

"Duffle Mania - What's On Your Arm"
- Calista Avery, Editorial Review Author

The Scene:

We spotted it on designer Christian Louboutin's arm while returning from Seville and instantly fell in love. T. Anthony, aka Theodore Anthony, designed cosmetic cases for Elizabeth Arden before opening his own boutique on Upper Madison Avenue in Manhattan in 1946. Today, his grandson has taken the reigns of the company and created a signature duffle collection (shown: Concorde Duffle) for savvy travelers. It screams of Palm Springs Racquet Club with white-leather piping against dark green and black canvas. A roomy main compartment is large enough for a pair of shoes side-by-side, but still small enough to bypass the Airline Gestapo.
