A clutch is a compact purse in in the form of an envelope. This is an evening accessory to go with evening outfits that are usually worn at formal social occasions. It looks like a larger version of wallet that can hold a few items, but is sleek and trendy. Clutches were believed to be a luxury item and a status accessory back in the 80's. In their effort to restore and preserve the Sarawak Malay heritage along with modernisation and industrialisation of fashion trends, CENTEXS Commercial and the artisan community in Sarawak have come out with the innovation of incorporating Songket & Songket motifs into clutches.
