Bag
I almost jumped out of my chair when I saw this Chanel bag. Not because I like it so much or because I have to have it. I was so surprised because it looks A LOT like my old Desmo bag that I’ve been trying to sell. I wanted to sell it for a while but I am too lazy to post it on eBay. Now that I’ve seen this Chanel I might not sell my old bag at all.
Usually when I see two similar bags I always assume that the cheaper one copies the more expensive one. However, after considering the timeline when these bags hit the market, this assumption was false. Now, I’m not saying that Chanel is copying Desmo (gosh, I hope not! cause that will be sad), but isn’t it a strange coincidence?
Here is my old Desmo (I think I had it for 3 years already). Don’t you think they have an uncanny resemblance? The obvious differences would be the Chanel logo, the amount of grommets, and the comfort leather slips on the Desmo chain (but they are very easy to remove). I’m sure the Chanel lambskin would be so much softer than the Desmo bag, since it is probably priced 10 times more than the Desmo. That’s the least we can expect, right? After all, the ingenious design factor is already out of the door.
