Ha! Oh my, I love it so much! So creative. And I bet Karl is kicking himself that he didn’t think of it first – considering the recent chinese take-away chanel bag!
that is pure genious. puts emphasis on the fact that it’s the brand that sells the product. so put a chanel logo quilted logo on a paper bag and it still gets publicity.
well plastic bags get called Asian handbags sometimes, so this is just taking the paper bag to the level it deserves!! Love it! You can also knit a designer bag if you have the time… http://www.counterfeitcrochet.org/about.html
I’ve seen this idea before in the 90′s when I was growing up in NYC. I saw girls in Spanish Harlem carrying homemade LV’s, Chanel and Fendi.Only it was considered “ghetto” then… my how things have changed
