Pulling a fast one

Marc Jacobs may be hailed as a demigod in the fashion industry and women will squeal like excited mice and scurry to lap up his creations every season they hit the stores.

Unfortunately, no one is born with the Midas touch and this time around, Mr. MJ suffers a lapse of judgment.

Look at these bags MJ designed for LV!!!
What are they? Grocery bags? In Singapore, some people refer to them as ‘China man’s bag’ mainly because they are used to lug around stuff you want to hawk in night bazaars/ pasar malams.

Then again, he may be trying to test the brand loyalty of his fans. Wonder how many people will actually part with their hard earned money to buy this bag?
Or is he trying to ingratiate himself with the citizens of Greater China? Maybe LVMH is underpaying him for this assignment.

Sorry MJ, but I don’t think they will like this. Nobody will anyway. The word’s tacky, darling.

hey, maybe LV is coming up with a less-than-obvious bag to store mutilated bodies. Now, with a LV stamp on these China/HK market bags,no one will suspect it stores dead people. Afterall who pays a bomb to keep corpses in and then dumb in the river??? *scary.. yikes*

Yea, the collection can be viewed on style.com. But I don't think the items are out in stores yet. Yikes!
