Ok...so we've been back and forth about this whole fanny pack thing for the greater part of this week on FB...I all fairness to those of you who tried to dump on the whole idea (you know who you are), I should've precluded my declaration with a photo of what inspired it.
I think it is safe to say that both Gucci and Louis Vuitton have successfully reinvented the fanny pack in the past and provided us with timeless versions of the 80's sensation...but Louis Vuitton has, without a doubt, truly revived and renovated it with such a respect for the fanny pack's old form that you almost want to throw on your door-knockers/bamboos/name plates/name rings, and pop in the cassette single of L.L.'s Around the Way Girl (and, yes, I said casstte)...
I was able to dig up a flick of Rhianna in London (rockin' an H&M sweater dress...) exiting a club with the damn thing on her waist ! I say this with such angst because I could only wish to be so lucky to be able to possess ANYTHING that hasn't even made it down the runway as of yet. According to my sources, this fanny pack is highly coveted and won't be seen on runways until the Louis Vuitton Spring 2010 Collection floods the runways in February. In the meantime -- those of us who lack Rhi Rhi's coffers can put aside a little change until we have saved enough to foot the the $2500 price tag that is said to be attached to it...smdh
