Balenciaga’s New Trash Bag Could be Yours for AU$ 2,557

“I couldn’t miss an opportunity to make the most expensive trash bag in the world, because who doesn’t love a fashion scandal?” — Demna.

Balenciaga is a brand that people from all over the world are impressed by. But the brand recently did something no one could have imagined. It has decided to sell a super expensive trash bag that costs more than one can imagine. Read on to know more about this accessory most people probably won’t need.

The trash bag that’s drawn attention will cost AU$ 2,557 or US$ 1790. The accessory was revealed during Balenciaga’s Winter 22 Collection fashion show. It was revealed via an interesting video. After the price of the bag was revealed, the internet was sent into a frenzy. People from different parts of the world shared their opinions regarding the Balenciaga product.

One person wrote this about the trash bag: “The next time someone calls me a trash bag, I’m gonna assume we’re talking about the Balenciaga thingy.”

Another added: “If you can afford to spend $1,790 on a #Balenciaga fashion accessory that looks like a trash bag, you should have enough cash in the bank to fill it up with cash and donate it to your nearest charity.”

As expected, Balenciaga’s Creative Director Demna Gvasalia defended the design and stated: “I couldn’t miss an opportunity to make the most expensive trash bag in the world because who doesn’t love a fashion scandal?”

The trash bag isn’t the only product by the brand that has astonished netizens. Gvasalia found himself under fire in May 2022 when Balenciaga was slammed for its worn kicks that were labelled as ‘Rubbish Shoes’ by consumers and cost about AU$3,718

Balenciaga also announced that it would release 100 pairs that looked ‘extra destroyed’ for those who want to look a little more ‘chic.’ It also drew reactions from the netizens. One person wrote on Twitter, “Can people stop pretending that Gucci and Balenciaga trainers are nice. Those hideous shoes wae studs as well, get them in the bin.”

Another wrote, “Balenciaga shoes look like the kinda s**t you’d find in the bargain bin at the supermarket for 10 bucks.”

It seems that Balenciaga has a taste for causing fashion scandals and gaining attention. What after trash bags? Fancy toilet rolls or something else.
