I love hairy crab season in Shang hai– it’s the most delicious crab! When I saw this fringed hobo from Carlos Falchi it reminded me of the belly side of hairy crabs– cooked to a pink perfection. Lift up the belly and you’ll discover sumptuous crab roe covering the most succulent flesh (female hairy crab is preferred)– dip it in malt vinegar and experience gastronomic explosion! Once I came out of my daydream, I took a hard look at this bag in all its horrific glory and lost my appetite. In all fairness I will go in person tomorrow to inspect if up close but I just don’t see the appeal of a hairy crab of a bag, even it’s made of crocodile and python (my two favorite skins!).
I read that Carlos Falchi will be doing an affordable line of bags for Target– even at $19.99 I wouldn’t use this except maybe as a crab carrier. $2,675 at Neiman Marcus.
What do you think??? Snob or Slob?
