By now, we’re all well-acquainted with Jeremy Scott’s Moschino. Clothes and their construction are often inspiration for his collections, with things like overalls and moto jackets transmogrified into handbags. For Resort 2016, Scott has set his sights on shopping itself for aesthetic cues, and the results are in line with what we’ve come to expect from the revamped brand: cheeky, literal and not particularly expensive-looking.
The collection includes a lot of purses made to look like shopping bags, which brands like Chanel have produced on and off in the past. In fact, the collection includes so many Chanel references that it sometimes feels like Scott is intentionally poking fun at the brand and its fans, which is something I wouldn’t put past him. When it comes to fashion, there is likely no one Scott wouldn’t skewer a little bit.
Whether you find all this funny or boring largely depends on your personal taste; Moschino is, as always, not intended to be a crowd-pleaser.

I’m tired of Jeremy Scott’s Moschino looks. In its 90’s heydey, Moschino was “cheeky and ironic” without trying so hard and without compromising quality. The clothes used to look and feel expensive and well tailored. This new stuff just looks gross and played out.
Agreed. I have no desire to walk around looking like I’m wearing a costume of a credit card or a bottle of shampoo or what ever.
I like the ombré bags (13, 20). I also liked numbers 9, 28, and 30. Classic shapes and silhouettes with a twist.
The ombré bags are the coolest
Do people actually buy these bags? Seriously what is keeping this brand afloat b/c I never see anyone wearing Moschino.
Only “fashion” bloggers seem to wear Moschino.
Quilted bags with a chain and leather strap… I’ve never seen that anywhere before…
Well, yeah, the point is to make fun of Chanel.
But you cannot keep making fun of Chanel after so many seasons with their bags jackets and skirts, maybe the point is that Moschino has nothing new to offer…..
I think these bags are MUCH more wearable, expensive-looking, and pretty than previous seasons. The bags wrapped in chain straps are genius.
The chains around bag looking too messy & very much like the college home work to me. They really need to look into details & workmanship!

Please, somebody, make this brand go away! This is tacky, tacky, tacky. Not cute, not ironic, not whimsical. Just tacky. And interestingly, since there are no pool floaties (which at least made you look…in horror) these designs just look sad. Like something a sidewalk vendor would hawk.
Thankfully, I have never seen anyone wear these bags. And I struggle to see who their market is beyond B grade starlets and wannabe bloggers. How are they staying afloat?
Is Moschino mocking Chanel? hahaha
Jeremy Scott is my favorite whackjob designer. Totally love how he crapped all over Chanel.
