A New Attitude for the Hip - AKA - Fugly

Alice Roi purse pack, $250.

Kris Van Assche waist pack, $356.

A 3.1 Phillip Lim buckled pouch, $300.


In Australia, they call it a “bum bag.” In France, it’s “le banane.” Apparently much of the world regards the fanny pack, that belted pouch often seen around the large mid-section of unsophisticated (white trash) travelers, as little more than a gag item. I will never be seen wearing a fucking fanny pack...especially not a $300 one!!!

A bowling ball cover, a piss colored jock strap and a binocular case. I could make a million bucks making fashion out of the stuff in my junk drawer :)
