Global luxury brand Valentino has highlighted its commitment towards the Indian market this festive season by launching an exclusive Whistling Bag design in the country. A limited edition of only 25 handbags has been launched at its exclusive brand outlets in Mumbai and New Delhi.

“The Valentino Garavani Whistling Bag has been reintroduced with exquisite embroidery for an exclusive, limited quantity launch in India,” the brand announced in a press release. “Beautiful and precious in design, this India special edition of the Valentino Garavani VSling is a dazzling accessory, available in a limited quantity of only 25, that reflects the maison’s meticulous attention to detail.”

The glittering gold bag is reminiscent of the festive lights of Diwali. Gold hardware and teardrop-shaped crystal embellishments add sparkle to a bag that can be worn on western and traditional occasions alike.

Valentino’s exclusive Whistling bag for India features a leather base and intricate pearl work. The brand’s signature ‘V’ monogram adds a modern feel to the design, which launches in select stores on October 24.

To create the bags, Valentino worked with a group of artisans in India who used a number of traditional craft techniques. According to the brand, each specific bag took 18.5 hours to create.
