Italian fashion house Braccialini has teamed up with Warner Bros for its new Looney Tunes handbag collection.
It seems a strange step for any European fashion label to create a range so whimsical, but Braccialini is known for working outside the box. The new handbag line features traditional shapes and styles married with the images of Daffy Duck, Bugs Bunny, Sylvester and Tweety Pie, and other cartoon favorites. The bags are casual but their high quality fabrics and expert craftsmanship point to their Italian heritage. It’s worth noting that the leather-like versions are made from a synthetic alternative rather than the genuine article, but if you’re not a fan of the man-made skin you can choose one of the cotton accessories.
The fabric and eco-leather Looney Tunes Braccialini bags are available from the company’s boutiques in Europe, the United Arab Emirates, China, Hong Kong, and the United States of America. Alternatively shoppers can buy the limited edition bags through the label’s website.
It’s fun to see a brand embracing its silly side, but I’m not sure I’d carry such novelty bags. Perhaps this Braccialini line is strictly for the most ardent of Looney Tunes fans. What do you think?
