The Wordy Walter van Beirendonck and Chris & Tibor Collection

Designer Walter van Beirendonck has joined forces with Chris & Tibor to create a new bag collection. The result is a line of backpacks and waist bags that are heavy on both words and fashion. 

The letter-friendly fanny packs are pretty sweet, but I can’t get over the headgear one of the models is rocking on the runway. It looks like someone mixed Princess Leia’s ‘do with two tap lights and decided to paint it with nine coats of highlighter orange. In other words… subtle.
