Last year MaxMara brand promoted the official opening party of the updated Whitney Museum of Art in New York. In honor of that event  brand’s designers released the bag, iterating architectural lines of the building.

And this year, to celebrate the first anniversary of the museum MaxMara launches the Whitney Bag Anniversary Edition, inspired by founder Gertrude Vanderbilt Whitney.

The new edition includes two handle bags similar to last year’s model. But this time accessory decorated by floral patterns – leaves and cornflowers. Such a combination is the quote at the portrait of Gertrude Vanderbilt Whitney, where she poses in a dress made by costume designer Leon Bakst, which is decorated with the same print – simple and beautiful!
