Women and Handbags: Insights by May Chan

Handbags are more than accessories; they are portable statements of identity. In a Cosmopolitan Sharing feature, May Chan of Spark Image and the fashion brand Michael Kors explored how handbags reflect personal style, practical needs, and evolving cultural tastes.

Drawing on her experience leading an image-consulting firm, May Chan discussed how choices in size, shape, colour and functionality convey priorities—professionalism, leisure, confidence or practicality—while also serving everyday needs. Michael Kors’ designs were presented as examples of how brand language and craftsmanship intersect with individual expression.

This conversation highlights that selecting a handbag involves both aesthetic judgment and situational thinking: what the bag carries, how it complements wardrobe and posture, and how it supports the story the owner wishes to tell. Such reflections remain useful for anyone seeking to refine their personal image with purpose and coherence.

Spark Image continues to translate these principles into practical guidance for clients seeking clarity in wardrobe and professional presentation.
