marcel wanders: saint-jacques for fabbricapelleteriemilano


'saint-jacques' by marcel wanders for fabbricapelleteriemilano


dutch designer marcel wanders has developed 'saint-jacques', a collection of suitcases for italian
luggage and bag company fabbricapelleteriemilano.

each of the suitcases comes with a TSA combination lock and handles designed to provide easier means of toting the bags around.
the interiors are organized to allow for the optimal placement of one's belongings, while the exterior of the suitcase is covered in
wanders' signature pattern with zipper pulls that recall the ironic face of the designer.

'I think the style conscious people will love the colors, the contrasts and the interior in bright colors,
while those who are attracted by the multi-sensory will appreciate the three-dimensional embossed surface
(…).' - marcel wanders

the suitcases are available in quick silver, jet black or space blue colors.

The logo is just horrible. In my opinion the only nice tthink is the interior of the suitcase. I don't like the exterior at all!
Jorge   06.16.11
