Accessories A Cut Above

This bag is full of holes—and that’s a compliment. Accessories obsessives don’t need to be told that it’s an Alaïa, carried on the arm of Lane Crawford’s ultra-fashionable fashion director, Sarah Rutson, as she navigated the Paris menswear shows last month. What might need telling is that such laser-cut, perforated accessories are a burgeoning trend. From our favorites from Alaïa’s atelier to strappy sandals, heels, boots, and flats high and low, we’ve rounded up the best of the bunch—plus a few famous fans, like Rutson and Giovanna Battaglia.
