Several models from Lollipops are fully embroidered with artificial flowers, turning the bags this way into skittish flower-beds.

Some bags are made with different colors and texture of skin, and thus look like colorful quilts. At the same time, safari elements, in turn, combined with “cat” coloring, zebra and pony patterns, and snake skin.
Dior Bags
Unlike Marc Jacobs, Dior made the African theme as the main motif of this spring-summer collection. This is not surprising, given that John Galliano recently has been traveling a lot to Africa and those trips certainly were reflected in his works. Therefore, animal motifs are back in style. Moreover, Dior offers very compact bags this spring and they look very promising. Thus, the leading models of this season are:
- briefcases,
- clutches,
- reticules,
- envelopes,
