Collectible Chartreuse Orchid Silk Moo Roo Handbag- Y2K. Signed by the Designer

A rare and exquisite piece from the early 2000s, this collectible Moo Roo handbag is a wearable work of art. Handmade in Charleston, South Carolina, Moo Roo bags were the brainchild of acclaimed designer Mary Norton, whose whimsical, bold, and theatrical creations quickly gained a celebrity following. Her designs were carried at high-end boutiques and on red carpets by stars like Sarah Jessica Parker and Charlize Theron. I purchased this striking piece at a Moo Roo trunk show at a boutique in Miami in 2000, where Mary herself was present and personally signed the bag. I fell in love with the vibrant chartreuse silk, lush silk orchid appliqués, and sculptural shape — it felt like carrying a couture flower arrangement.
