Handbag protocol

Protocol for carrying a bag at events:

1. Size : The bag should be small, about 25 cm wide.

2. How to carry it : it is always held in the hand, especially at the beginning of the event, and is never placed under the armpit.

3. Correct hand : it is carried in the left hand to leave the right hand free to greet or eat.

4. Elegant posture : the most refined way is to place the four fingers in front and pinch with the thumb.

5. Godmother : the godmother should also carry a bag, just like the rest of the guests.

6. Materials : For afternoon or evening events, metallics, rhinestones or sequins are the best choice.

7. During the cocktail hour: do not let go of your bag or rest it between your legs; if necessary, you can hold it like a tray under your glass when your other hand is occupied.

8. When seated : the bag is placed on the chair, behind us.

9. Color : it is not essential that it matches the headpiece or shoes; it can be neutral or the same color as the dress.
