Its fame even reached the Concise Oxford English Dictionary, with the term 'handbagging' coined to sum up the fierce dressing down she gave her opponents or colleagues.
Numerous other such phrases have been added to our language, the origins of whch can be attributed to the buckled hides of these bags. ‘Handbags at dawn’ is another such phrase.
