Marni Canvas Balloon with Kim Gordon Print
By jeaninne

As a part the Summer Edition 2009 capsule collection, Sonic Youth singer Kim Gordon collaborated with Marni to create bags and tee-shirt with her abstract prints, like the one on this canvas balloon bag. Is it abstract? Looks like a puppy to me. I know she is a famous singer but is she a designer too? I guess any artist can delve into any medium these days and they do. I don’t know how I feel about this, I just can’t take the pushing of the envelope on things that are good just the way they are. Oh no, that was total old people thinking. But let me get to some points that do not reflect my age or personal digressions. It is canvas and is unlined but is still $1000, sure it is much less than the leather balloon in the same size for $1800 but still I don’t want to throw away bag. White canvas, think about it. It will get so gross that the abstract print will blend in with all the dirt. Good or bad, you decide. At Marni boutiques and Marni online.

    It’s a cute bag but I would be afraid of getting it dirty.

    I wish there was a better picture of the design. It looks like a puppy to me…

    Hmm..The bag is cute as said before. Sure, dirt shows, but then you take care of your precious exotics too; you don´t just throw them around either.

    Ewww.

    This bag is disturbing looking to me. The fur with spots looks blemished and diseased.
