TELFAR Unveils Revolutionary “Plastic Bag” Handbag Collection Inspired by NYC Bodegas
TELFAR, the Brooklyn-based brand known for its democratic ethos, is shaking up the fashion world once again with its latest release: the TELFAR Plastic Bag handbag. This innovative design takes inspiration from the ubiquitous single-use bags found in New York City bodegas and liquor stores, elevating them to a whole new level.
Available in two sizes and eleven prints, the TELFAR Plastic Bag features a waterproof exterior and ruched handles, making it both stylish and functional. The regular size, priced at $148 USD, can hold a 13-inch laptop, while the jumbo size, priced at $195 USD, is perfect for a carry-on. But what truly sets this bag apart is its unique design, which stays true to TELFAR’s “for everybody” mantra.
Since its inception in 2004, TELFAR has been breaking barriers and challenging traditional fashion norms. This new release is no exception, with its playful anti-fashion stunts and unconventional distribution methods. In fact, the brand’s 20th anniversary runway show was held on a SoHo side street, with an open casting call just weeks before.
The TELFAR Plastic Bag and a capsule of matching tees will be available exclusively on the brand’s webstore on August 15, and in-store at 408 Broadway, New York City, next week. Don’t miss your chance to get your hands on this revolutionary handbag collection that truly embodies the spirit of New York City.
