Well for all of you who do and don’t like this bag, but LOVE Carlos Falchi himself, you should for sure check out the Carlos Falchi trunk show @ Owl’s Lab in NY located on 20 East 12th St between 5th Avenue and University. The show is from 12-5 p.m. A representative from Carlos Falchi will be on hand as well as the new bags for Spring 2009! Appetizers will be provided! Hope to see you there!

I think Carlos is a lovely person who makes lovely bags, but this is one ugly bag!!

I just love it! I love gorgoeus bright colors, it’s really stunning. You can wear it with a simple outfit, it looks great with the outfit in the pic!

Sorry Meg. This bag looks scary to me. It reminds me of the $44,000 Vuitton pathwork bag. That Vuitton made me realise that my love for bags is not a blinded one.

Maybe this bag looks better in person but not for me.

I think this bag is heinous! Seriously, it looks like a Rubik’s Cube that threw up on itself. It might be moderately acceptable if it weren’t so big, at least then you wouldn’t be wasting as much perfectly acceptable python.

I totally see what you both are saying. I knew this bag would be VERY hated or loved. I tend to love it, something really lures me in.

Wow, you might want to rethink the “look” as demonstrated on last two pics above. This bag just hurts my eyes…

What was the inspiration behind this bag? It’s so old fashioned looking reminds me of a throwback to the 70’s that didn’t make it. Also has a bit of a leatherworking class look to it and so I would have to admit that the most I would pay for it would be……50Cents, and no that’s not the rapper I am talking about, it’s half a dollar.

I love the design but don’t like the bold patchwork colors.

I think the Dolce & Gabbana bag was better executed, however this bag is real python while the D & G was embossed snakeskin.

I kind of get where they were going with it, but I hate the shape and size of the bag. A less bulky and streamlined shape would have been better. I think Dolce and Gabbana’s multi snakeskin bag is a better example of this concept.

It looks like a collaboration between Romero Britto and Carlos Falchi. The range of colors is exactly all the colors RB uses for hs work.

Such a cool blog. I am new here, but will show this to my purse crazy daughter. I have a food blog, and just by coincidence, posted a story about purses this week.

I don’t know… something about it lures me in. It probably is because I am in South Florida too. This would not be a good bag for say, Ohio, where we lived before.

The individual skins that make up the bag look divine, but the bag itself. . .WHY a patchwork, Megs?

Horrible and the design looks somewhat like BV’s Campana
