Marc Jacobs must have been really searching for ideas while creating this season’s [handbags](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/marc-jacobs-tote-bag) because they look like trash. Glad, draw-string trash bags to be exact. The new Louis Vuitton Raindrop Besace comes in green and brown and the only thing separating it from its [plastic predecessor](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/telfar-plastic-bag) is the coated canvas it is made of and the removable shoulder strap.

The French luxury retailer and its die-hard fans are labeling the Louis Vuitton Raindrop Besace a utilitarian carry-all, but no amount of fancy description could justify the $1,960 price tag.
