While super-tiny clutches – ones that are two sizes too small even a modestly-proportioned lipstick – may be the arm candy du jour at red carpets and gala dinners, it’s their far roomier, squarer counterparts that steal the show when it comes to full functionality. With this in mind, many of the most happening haute couture brands have launched a selection of smart but sensible square bags, complete with clean lines and sharp silhouettes.
