I don’t know what to make of Givenchy‘s Melan Bag. It’s at once interesting and bizarre. Rambo-esque bullet chain with a Mondrian-ish shaped bag tossed together with large links even and chains. Though strange looking, I am not repulsed by it. The color is great and the brushed goldtone hardware shows up beautifully against it. I just think it got too ambitious in the design room and didn’t know what it wanted to be when it grew up. Its one redeeming quality is that the strap is removable (thank goodness!) and then you just have an origami style (and very large clutch) $1,775 at Barneys.com
What do you guys think? Snob or Slob?
