My collection "Fashion Rocks", which combines rock 'n' roll imagery and music style with couture fashion has mutated beyond t-shirts and bags long ago and now includes the whole gamut of rock 'n' roll icons, not just The Beatles, FYI. I say this with a smirky smile on my lips!
Then again - come on! - this bag is cute enough and why should Rei not get a shot at The Beatles? Right? So I am looking forward, impatiently, to see what she'll come up with!
Über fashion reporter and patriarch Suzy Menkes from the NY Times, whom I got to meet at the T party at the Boom Boom Room during Fashion Week, forecasts a collection of bags and shirts to look more basic than inventive. Well? Again, that doesn't sound like Rei. I wonder.
Now. Only one last thought before I am moving on with my life: the repetitive logo pattern feels a bit Louis Vuitton-ish, n'est çe pas? I just hope no one bites the dust, dear!!
...grateful dead bag from the idilvicefashionrocks collection 2007...

I love your bag wayyyyyyyy more! In fact I do not even think that beatles one will make it to production.
Remember when Comme des Garçons invented Hiroshima sheik and it was black and it was structured and it had meaning... the next year they went all virginal and it was sad... its been hit and miss since then.
hey Vita - yes, I really love what they have done at Comme Des Garcons in the past and they are classics but sometimes I am shocked that these well-funded and financially backed fashion houses make bad creative choices... I would think they are above it but, I guess they are not all the time ;/ Thanks for the comment!
