Balenciaga Patchwork Arena

Balenciaga gets an award for recycling scrap leather in this version of the Arena bag. Balenciaga looks lazy trying to rehash the same bag shape again and again. Though the Arena bag was once cool, it’s past its prime. This is definitely on my not to by list. At Barneys $2,345.

  1. I, too, discourage my kids from using the word the HATE. they even refer to it as the H word. And, I, too, must say that I hate this bag. Ouch…..all those poor people who will buy it at half off, since so many will be around, and we’ll all be like, “Oh, there goes that bag we hate….”

  2. See I think Patchwork with the Right Construstion and Outfit is very Bohemian and I like that look. Never on me, but on others as well!!!

    Balenciaga needs to get over this bag and start over, because he is doing the Brand a Disjustice with this bag!!!

  3. This bag is fun! Get over it. Break up your black with a little patchwork. Great colors on this one, Black,burgandy,green. It doesn’t get much better than that. Don’t be so cliche “Bohemian” mix it up and use your imagination. The Fashion world keeps producing copies from years gone by. Don’t wear it like years gone. Be creative and find a new way to work it.

  4. I don’t agreed with you Tina, if you said making a same design over and over again is like a factory.. what about Hermes’ birkin and kelly?????
