The Rosey Special Edition was originally made for a first lady. It also played a starring role in Gilmore Girls: A Year In the Life when it became Rory Gilmore's favorite bag. Like its namesake Rosey, a successful writer/director and world-champion equestrian, it epitomizes versatility while remaining structured and striking. The Sting emboss and metal adornments represent Rosey's affinity for aesthetics, while the equestrian-inspired hardware is an ode to the art of equestrian vaulting. Discreet inner-attached handles and a sophisticated exterior exude vintage charm and are the hallmarks of this all-purpose showpiece. Grace, genius, glamour and grit are all bundled into this divine celebration of artistry and agility, all thanks to the inspiration of the real Rosey.
