Balenciaga, a European luxury fashion brand, is the host of some of designer Demna Gvasalia's latest work, including a series of tote carriers, purses, wallets and more strangely, laundry bags.
While most people don't associate extravagant designs with their laundry bags, Demna Gvasalia is looking to change perceptions of what's considered necessary for everyday products by making them extraordinary. The laundry bags are priced upwards of $2,500 each, however the cost might be worth it for those fond of oversized bags, whether or not they actually choose to use it to pack their dirty laundry in it.
The products are offered in a variety of different colors, however the most standout version is one that takes on a palette of vibrant primary colors, which are separated with a pattern of vertical bars.
