The material says it all...

A handbag is considered to be as good as its carrying capacity – the strength of the bag largely depends on the material or fabric used. The most popular material for making Belisi Fashions handbags is leather. Leather handbags lend a look of sophistication. Other materials used for making handbags include cloth, canvas, burlap, corduroy, velvet, silk rayon, metal mesh, straw, plastic, and more.

Some authentic leather purses are made from lambskin, cowhide, sheepskin, calfskin, and even pigskin. Leather is the most sought after material for handbags as it looks relatively new even after years of regular use. Leather, basically being animal skin, undergoes a process of tanning and finishing preparation. After being adequately treated, the leather takes on varied colors and outer appearances. Depending upon the final appearance, it is classified as either suede, patent, embossed, glazed, or antiqued leather. Suede leather exhibits a velvety finish, with patent leather having a rich and shiny look, and antiqued and glazed leather having a smoothly polished appearance. While leather made from pigskin is meant to be pliant and strong, leather made from lambskin is said to have a more lustrous appearance. Leather made from cowhide, a type of grain leather is also highly prized for making handbags. When you buy a leather bag, it is an often accepted fact that you would not need another bag for many years. Belisi leather handbags are set to garner as much of a loyal fan following as the tried and tested Belisi ties.

Faux fur is a non-controversial and animal friendly substitute for leather that will satisfy the sentiments of animal and nature lovers. Looking as good as genuine animal fur, bags made of this material have an innovative aesthetic appeal. Faux fur is used in almost all kinds of bags from small clutches to totes to even hoboes and shoulder bags. Faux fur bags are sometimes embellished with rich linings, bamboo handles, and occasionally imitation jewels. Another treat for those who do not wish to use animal products are the vegan handbags. These bags use artificially created micro fibers, with the look and feel of leather. The vegan bags are even cheaper than pure leather bags.

Silk handbags are in demand due to the intrinsic sheen that the material exudes. These bags are ideal for formal occasions, especially when wearing a gown. Authentic designer handbags are made of almost all kinds of materials and are often on display at seasonal fashion shows. Every manufacturer gives utmost importance to the choice of material for the handbags. Modern handbags are made of denim too, which besides looking good are also as strong as denim is known to be.

One of the most traditional and contemporary handbags, the crochet handbags, are made by hand and represent the hard work and dedication that goes into the making of these bags.
