Why Balenciaga COPIED ikea (a lovely story) #luxury #fashion #bags #balenciaga #ikea

[red-road-rot]

The concept of struggling to even afford a bag and later creating overpriced designer bags is so funny to me

[nemanjaras]

Pretty sure Balenciaga would sue Ikea if it copied their design.

“I couldn’t even afford a school bag” .. makes a school bag for $2, 000. Way to give back 😒

2k is overly expensive, no matter what leather are they using.

[Benethon]

The reason to the price is high quality leather😂😂😂😂
No, it’ snobbery

[yaileenmaldonadomendez]

Rich people forgetting where they came from so quick... How about paying tribute by making a durable bag for cheap this one time... So hypocritical...

As a college student I struggled to buy the $300 calculus books. Now that I’m successful, I will make a $3, 000 calculus book to pay homage to the struggles I went through!

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery!

[tarayoung]

Yeah gonna have to stay with the ikea version this one time! LoL

I need to get my mom one of these! She goes through the Ikea bags to find the best one when we are in the store. She uses them for storage. I think she would be thrilled if she had a couture one

Ikea has a rain bucket hat that is highly sought after… they should do a collab with a haus lol

Tip for the Ikea bag: Use them instead of laundry baskets for carrying loads up and down stairs to the laundry room. Much safer, for olds and youngers! Shorten the straps if needed.

It's complicated for me because I aknowledge the struggles of the artist and empathize with them
But on the other hand it a multimillion luxury brand ripping an original design and in a way appropriating poor aesthetics for the rich

[MattFromHawaii]

I'm sure it made their sales at ikea, a little more cause of the bag from Balenciaga. I've been familiar with the ikea bag prior to Balenciaga, but have only wanted the ikea bag, after Balenciaga came out with theirs lol

i think fashion just goes over a lot of people’s heads. brands like moschino and balenciaga aren’t tone deaf with statements and shocking pieces like these, they’re just another element of artistic performance. it’s fashionably camp, and a way to maintain relevancy in the cultural zeitgeist. whether ur praising them or hating them, ur talking about them💋

[lisafranklin]

This is my fave shorts you've ever done 👋🏼👋🏼💗

[mgsporty]

Over 2k for a bag!? That's crazy.

[vivianabalbuena]

Any one who copies the regular ppl or just poor ppl. Anyone who mocks children as well called and “artist” now days.

It’s free marketing for ikea . They’re int totally differnt markets and totally differnt price points and tbh I’m not Ben sure they could have sued

Struggles as a student. Too many items to carry. Not poverty and Starvation. Different take.
