When Fashion Gets Ridiculous


Would you pay $55,000.00 for this crocodile backpack designed by Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen of The Row and decorated with prescription pills by artist Damien Hirst? Even if I was a gazillionaire and could afford to use cashmere for toilet paper and had a butler named Jeebs I wouldn't. I have a hard time paying even three hundred dollars for a designer handbag so I'd have a really difficult time forking out fifty grand for a backpack decorated with Prozac and Viagra. Just sayin....But at least some of the proceeds will be going to UNICEF! To read more about the collaboration click here.

I remember being kinda horrified that they made a 30000$ backpack (and that it sold out!) a while back. I thought the ridiculousness would stop there. But this is just insane. The only good would be if 100% of the proceeds went to UNICEF and not just partial.

not uncommon for The Row but I agree with you, totally outpriced and not something I would splurge on if I had the means! Wonder who will buy this awful bag!?
