Gilded LEGO Purses

These Fashionable Clutches by Agabag are Constructed From Toy Building Blocks

— May 13, 2016 — Fashion
Agabag is an accessory retailer that puts together fashionable clutches constructed using LEGO toy building blocks, and its most recent collection includes golden versions of the brick pieces directly onto the totes and purses. The added precious metal gives the clutches an upscale and sophisticated look that is paired with the nostalgic building block material.

While LEGO blocks are often targeted to younger demographics, the Agabag purses leverage the stackable design of the bricks to create stylish purses for adults. The purses are made from material wrapped in a layer of the bricks, that are then used as the clipping mechanism to shut the bags. 24-karate bricks are added as well as buckle detailing and embellishments for added opulence.
Trend Themes
1. Golden LEGO Accessories - The integration of gold LEGO pieces into fashion accessories offers a disruptive innovation opportunity to combine nostalgia with luxury.
2. Stylish LEGO Purses - Creating fashionable purses using LEGO bricks introduces a disruptive innovation opportunity to appeal to adult demographics with a playful twist.
3. Lego-inspired Clutch Design - Designing clutches that mimic the stackable design of LEGO blocks presents a disruptive innovation opportunity to merge fashion and childhood memories.
Industry Implications

2. Luxury Goods - The incorporation of 24-karat gold LEGO bricks and opulent embellishments disrupts the luxury goods industry, blending childhood playfulness with high-end sophistication.
3. Toy Market - The creation of LEGO-inspired accessories for adults disrupts the toy market by introducing a new segment that merges nostalgia with fashion.
