- nsfmc 16y agoWhen i see the tote bag, i think of http://designobserver.com/images/features/jacobs.jpg http://designobserver.com/images/features/jacobs.jpg which, if you ask me, is beyond hilarious and the most ridiculous self-lampooning brand statement ever. Jacobs by Marc Jacobs For Marc by Marc Jacobs In Collaboration With Marc Jacobs for Marc by Marc Jacobs The relevant paragraph from the original article[1] here: Marc Jacobs skewered his own eponymous empire with his "marc by marc for marc" tote. This fascination with cheap bags seemed like part reaction to, and part extension of the high-end handbag frenzy that gripped the fashion industry for much of the 00s. It had all the same qualities of exclusivity and brand envy, but also seemed at least in part to be an acknowledgement that things had gone too far. Was Mr. Jacobs’ self-mocking tote a mea culpa for the astronomical hand-bag prices he had helped engineer at Louis Vuiton or was it a sly attempt to mainstream the phenomenon?

- mortenjorck 16y agoThe description takes a different direction, but it made me laugh out loud nonetheless: Consider the purpose of a bag, of a sack: we most often use sacks to carry many individual objects in the form of just one object – we want to represent and encapsulate many distinct entities into one vehicle…. You should definitely get yours – for as Goldman Sachs certainly knows, grouping individual objects as one has all kinds of wild benefits and will allow you to circumvent all sorts of annoying obstacles.
