Models walked the muddy Balenciaga Summer 2022 runway during Paris Fashion Week toting [Lay's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/huemn) potato chip bag accessories. The Lay’s-branded calfskin bags with zips from the designer brand are being introduced in varieties like classic, lime, and salt and vinegar. Alongside the familiar potato chip branding, [Balenciaga Paris](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chip-bag-1) also appears on the snack bag-styled accessories. These bags are styled to be permanently scrunched, making them look as if they never leave the clutches of their owner.

Fashion fans with a keen eye may have seen the first hints of the unusual accessories that would appear at The Mud Show Collection when Balenciaga’s creative director Demna Gvasalia attended Antwerp's [Royal Academy of Fine Arts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/copenhagen-fashion-week-ss27) graduate fashion show with a pack of Lay’s Original Wavy Potato Chips.
