世界最贵纸袋热销单价185英镑
以极简主义著称的国际大牌吉尔•桑达在2012秋冬男装系列中推出了一款纸质手包，售价185英镑（约合人民币1843元），这大概是目前世界上最贵的纸袋了。时尚批评人士认为只有傻瓜才会花大钱买这样的东西，可现实说明，这样的人还真不少。据悉，这款纸袋由百分百印刷涂料纸制成，纸袋两侧有缝线加强袋身结构，自推出后就在全球范围内热销。上市三周后，英国唯一一家实体经销店中的中号纸袋就已售罄，吉尔•桑达官方网店存货也被抢购一空，使其不得不向外部零售商请求货源支持。
Jil Sander's menswear autumn/winter 2012 'Vasari' bag is possibly the world's most expensive paper bag - but that hasn't stopped it from selling out.
Fashion critics will tell you that you could stick a designer label on the most mundane, everyday item and some silly fashion victim will pay big bucks for it. Well, sadly, they may be right.
Following on from spring/summer 2011's sell-out acetate shopping bag, Jil Sander is now flogging a glorified brown paper lunch bag for a whopping £185.
The bag, which is made of '100 per cent coated paper' and features stitched seams, was carried by office-ready male models during the designer's autumn/winter 2012 menswear show in January, and has proved such a hit that it's been selling out all over the world.
Independent London boutique LN-CC is the only UK stockist of the bag and has already sold out of their stock quota of the medium-sized version just three weeks after it first went on sale. Similarly, it's no longer available on Jil Sander's official ecommerce site, and the brand was reportedly forced to ask for stock back from outside retailers as they were running low. But, you can still pick up the smaller version; although it will still set you back £175.
There's a more luxurious leather version too, but you'll be left with little change from £500. Alternatively, you could fashion your own using a McDonald's takeaway bag and a biro.
