Collection of John Galliano, Spring / Summer 2010

In the design of these tiny designer handbags from the new collection by John Galliano the irony of his own “newspaper” figures are read and an allusion to the cult-bag packages Chanel, “telling” that in life you can get and the simplest things.
There is only just a plastic bag, with slips on top, attracting the usual cord. It can fit cosmetics, and cell phone, and a few plastic cards. And for fashionable women not to feel let down, the surface of the bag was decorated with the brand “newspaper” print.
This idea is certainly not devoid of humor – like the famous handbags from Chanel, made in the form of shopping bags – and, therefore, can expect the same success.

Besides Galliano shows another obvious trend – transparency (in the new collections we have seen transparent bags – for example, Prada).
Personally I am very curious to look at it, in what form, this idea will be presented next spring – in the collections made no longer for the podium, but for sale. But at the same time I think with fear that persuasive simplicity of the idea can generate a lot of fakes – as happened again, with the works of Karl Lagerfeld.
