Iconic superhero characters from the world’s most popular comic books seem to have seeped their way into almost every corner of pop culture over the past few years, and if movies, TV shows, ever-expanding Comic Cons weren’t enough for you, Valentino‘s superhero-themed totes will give you a decidedly luxurious way to cosplay for Resort 2016.
You can now pre-order a capsule collection of Valentino bags licensed by DC Comics, allowing the Italian brand to reimagine several superheroes’ familiar logos with a bit of a signature Valentino touch. For example, the Bat Signal is now more of a butterfly.
As with all things Valentino, though, the details come at a price. All of these bags (which, to be fair, are quite large and functional) retail for over $4,000, which strikes me as a bit high for the non-luxury inspiration. Superhero fans are as dedicated to their hobbies as anyone you’ll find, though, so these bags will likely find happy homes. For me, though, they’re a pass.
What about you? Does a superhero-inspired bag interest you as a concept, and do these interest you in particular? Check out the bags below, which are available for pre-order via Neiman Marcus.
leaving this one… I can buy a similar looking bag at target for $30 and keep the change.
This seems more Moschino than Val.
i am agree with U
Moschino will probably do something like this in their next collection.

These look like knock off designs– oh not of different bag brands, but super heroes. I don’t care for valentino, but for all the squawking I see over “inspired” bags (I.E. x brand is copying chanel!!!!) these make me laugh because this is all I can think of:
That’s exactly what my bf said (who LOVES comic books AND fashion) – that these look like knock-offs.
I smell a lawsuit in the near future, for Valentino.
Spiderman is Marvel, not DC.
Actually it is owned, at the moment, by Sony for licensing purposes,
Leave! Look like not so well designed Anya bags
Disappointed that they’re not an official collaboration…
Amanda said it was licensed by DC. That is official collaboration.
Absolutely lovely, funny , luxury at the same time (great hand work). Why a brand as Valentino cannot explore some funny inspirations? . Those beautiful totes make me so happy and excited. I cannot resist at those kind of babes
The “Spiderman/heart” graphic in Slide 2 is fun in a lunchbox sort of way. But when it comes right down to it they’re too expensive, too trendy, and (assuming I could be talked into buying one, which is a stretch) I’d be bored with it in a week. No thanks… I’ll stick to classics.
Yeah at half the price I would consider it.
They are fun…but I would not spend $4000.00 on them.
I think #2 is fabulous. They really nailed the design but I’d never buy it. I’d buy a Fendi monster or bug because its based on an original Fendi idea – not ripped off from another source. Similarly, I wouldn’t buy one of the new kate spade Magnolia Bakery bags.
If it has to be superhero, why don’t make it in super girl/wonder woman/ bat girl style?
LOL, Ouch!
Leave it PLEASE!
Defin. love it!
reminds me a lot of Anya Hindmarch. They should make an Ironman one!
I like the idea but a butterfly?…A heart?
terrible
Anya Hindmarch wannabe? But the prices oy vey!
Didn’t Stella McCartney do a superhero collection a few seasons ago?
Nope leave this sort of thing to Think Geek & Hot Topic. If I’m dropping cash on a designer bag I want a grown up looking bag.
