世界最貴紙袋熱銷單價185英鎊
以極簡主義著稱的國際大牌吉爾•桑達在2012秋冬男裝系列中推出了一款紙質手包，售價185英鎊（約合人民幣1843元），這大概是目前世界上最貴的紙袋了。時尚批評人士認爲只有傻瓜纔會花大錢買這樣的東西，可現實說明，這樣的人還真不少。據悉，這款紙袋由百分百印刷塗料紙製成，紙袋兩側有縫線加強袋身結構，自推出後就在全球範圍內熱銷。上市三週後，英國唯一一家實體經銷店中的中號紙袋就已售罄，吉爾•桑達官方網店存貨也被搶購一空，使其不得不向外部零售商請求貨源支持。
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.
