Also known as the Superbitchbag, this handbag helps to make sure you don't get approached by too many strangers.

Unlike most handbags, it's non-functional and features giant freaking gun encased in glass. It's a pretty intense statement.

The concept was created by Ted Noten to be consumed as art.

**Implications** - When it comes to purses, females are looking for more than just bling and leather for style. Modern artworks have a [quirky, whimsical quality](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/remotecontrolled-cars) that many consumers look for in fashion. The combination of [contemporary art and fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/artycapucines-vii) is a beautiful marriage of an artistic element that brands can build on so that they offer items that are less serious, fun and functional at the same time.

### Sectors Adopting This

- **Fashion:** Opportunity for fashion brands to incorporate contemporary art into their designs, catering to consumers seeking unique, offbeat pieces.
