Verily Virginia

Actress Virginia Madsen poses before the start of the Kevan Hall fashion show during Mercedes Benz Fashion Week at Smashbox Studios in Culver City, Calif., Thursday, Oct. 19, 2006. Madsen carries a handbag by Mary Norton, designer of red carpet favorite MOO ROO. At the Kevan Hall fashion show, Madsen chose “ZOE” - a small origami folded clutch in silver brocade with magnetic closure and embellished with metallic hand-embroidery of silver and white pearls.

Other starlets carried Mary Norton Bags:

Lindsay Sloane of Bring it On attended the Elsie Katz Couture fashion show, also carrying a “ZOE” clutch - this version in black calfskin with a Swarovski crystal encrusted hurricane jewel. Ashley Benson of Days of Our Lives accessorized her cream satin cocktail dress at Tuesday’s Dina Bar-El show with Mary Norton’s “TYCOON” platinum leather rectangular minaudiere with faceted Swarovski crystal stones.
