    Just remember, there is a difference between fashion and style. You can buy fashion; style you either have or you dont. This has no style. And its not nearly big enough for all the crap I carry.

    Fashion: Convincing bitches to don retarded apparel at exorbitant cost since 1571.


    Get it right, people - just because it costs $10,000 doesn't mean it's worth diddly squat.

    Wow. Honestly, the only thing that limits the stuff I have in my pockets is my pockets. This would be perfect for a cluttery person as it forces you to a minimalist thing.

    Fashion shows = lamest crap ever. Who wears this stuff anyways? Nobody? Never would have guessed. ;)


    FLxP(1/2)-4(3^7)-E = 0


    Where 0 is the number of people wearing this stuff.

    @FunkyMonkey: Who drives concept cars? No one. Fashion shows are a necessary evil, and when you buy new clothes, they're inspired by those seen at fashion shows.

    @pettiblay: Except that most people would drive a concept car, given the chance. How many people would wear or use most of the stuff at a fashion show?


    Hint: see above equation

    @psychiccheese: I have always found car concepts to be more grounded in reality. Therein lies the difference. More than half of BMW concepts, for instance, are translated into production cars. The Honda CR-X is another example of a concept that will be important in determining demand for a new class of vehicle - compact hybrid sports hatchbacks. Even the purely stylistic car concepts have a good chance of influencing actual car design - like the Mazda "Taiki" concept - the applications of which can be seen in the new Mazda 6 and Mazda 3.


    I do not believe that the same can be said for most runway fashion.

    The only way this can be worse is if they cover it in Swarovski crystals too.

    @layabout saaving Saab one caar at a time: Why is this cross-posted to Jalopnik? It's not a car, it's not car-branded, and Jalopnik is not a blog about conspicuous over-consumption.


    Okay, Ray Wert is all about conspicuous over-consumption, but the rest of us are not. Damn Ray and his Burberry Quattroporte.

    @layabout saaving Saab one caar at a time: Maybe Wert's replacing it with a Chanel Segway, and that's why it's been cross-posted to Jalopnik for no other logical reason?

    Given that the purse attached to the front is going to run you upward of $4,000+ alone, I can't imagine the damage this thing would run. Anyways, I always hated that new Chanel leather (as pictured). Might I add that the quilted leather handlebars and the errrr rims(?) also are "Chanel". This has to run upward of 20k. HORRIFYING. Did they make this just for Paris Hilton?

    Is that a huge horn on the front of that thing? Also, I find it highly amusing that this is an all-terrain version of the Segway, because of course Chanel customers will be traveling off road all the time on this.
