Marni Balloon Handbag with Richard Prince Print
Sooo… do you have your Marni Balloon Bag yet? On Friday I went to a launch party for a nightlife Magazine, and I was amazed at how many Marni Balloon bags were out in the crowd. I would say easily 4. Everyone else was holding Chanel or Louis Vuitton (Riveting and Olympe Stratus!).
At first I didn’t like the Marni Balloon bag, well because, it looked like a giant balloon. But now I am in love – my favorite for spring-summer-days is the one pictured above. Dressed in nylon canvas and topped off with double straps (hand straps in two-toned acetate, detachable shoulder straps in ribbon with leather accents), this bag features a fun print by Richard Prince for Marni – Definitely a casual spring day bag. Price $1,100.

Random: When I first discovered the Marni Balloon bag I could not get this video out of my head. It is slightly long, approx 5 minutes, but it will surely add a smile to your face.

Ahh I love this bag! I was going to say though.. the red patent one reminds me more of a balloon and this one looks like a hot air balloon ;)
Love the video. and the bag, well, I love the Richard Prince print but dont like the shape of the balloon bag.
I just purchased the red one off of eBay like 10 min ago! It was a buy it now from someones online store. I can not wait to get it. I will post so many pics upon arrival in tBf ;D
I don’t like the design at all. But I do love the marni balloon shape. Slightly overpriced imho. hum, I think I will wait until one pops up on ebay. Something tells me they will go for like $400 less in a couple months
