Why are our typical chuspas for market in the square sold in the most prestigious showcases in the world with exorbitant prices?
At Vibra we were very surprised to see a note in which The country, from Spain, compared the new handbags from the Balenciaga firm with the bags that Thais use to carry their dirty clothes to the laundromat; the surprise was not because of that cultural detail, but because we recognized in those designs our typical chuspas to market in the squarealthough many of us have used them as travel suitcases on intercity buses, or not?
Our lollipops are woven polypropylene bags, very economical and reusable; we imagine that Thai women named after the middle of Spain are similar, so we wonder How does a very cheap and popular item reach the catwalks at a price that exceeds 7 million pesos?
Inspiration, designers say; copy-paste, others think; appropriation of image with different materials, say the most technical… When the Spanish firm Balenciaga presented this bag during the last Fashion Week in Paris, caused a stir on the networks…
“I also have a Balenciaga”the outraged Thais wrote in their posts while posing with their traditional bags, our very market chuspas.
As reported by one of the most important newspapers in Spain, the collection that includes this bag, called Bazar, has just gone on sale in the Iberian country, and has been a hit in sales despite the price: a big one It costs 2,300 Euros, something like 7 million 700 thousand pesos, based on the current currency exchange rate. Ahhhhh!?
