Moschino Cheap and Chic: Not Cheap and Not Chic

moschino_cheap_and_chic.jpg

The late Francisco Moschino was known for his whimsical sexy design in the 1980’s. That being said, this Moschino Cheap & Chic Borsa Tracolla Shoulder Bag doesn’t seem sexy or whimsical to me. The boring color, the dated double adjustable buckles on the flimsy straps, and the sad shape of a tourist travel pouch just doesn’t translate the Moschino spirit to me. While I do understand not everyone is fond of carrying a neon sequined peace sign evening bag, but I do miss the humorous detail and the luxury material one usually finds in the classic Moschino designs.

On another note, my 70 year old dad did find this shoulder bag quite functional and would like to carry one on his next trip to Europe. Imagine his expression when I told him about the $715 price tag that goes with this chic accessory. Now you know daddy, it doesn’t come cheap to look this good!  At Revolveclothing.com
