Fendi Spy Fur Handbag

Megs · Dec 14th, 2006, 12:57 AM

I am not even here to advocate or not advocate this handbag and its use of animal fur. Rather I am here to question why a store like Barneys give an elementary description of a handbag that equates to the the down payment for a brand new BMW (or any other $44,000 car). Barneys New York advertises the highly pricey rendition of the Fendi Spy Fur Handbag as "The best selling spy bag updated for Fall in grey fur. With metallic silver woven leather handles and lining. 16"x10.5"x6". Okay, thank you for your time and serious care in describing this handbag. Seriously? I end at this page realizing that all I have learned is that Barneys carries a grey fur Spy bag that is just like all the other Spy bags; except for the fact that it indeed has grey fur and costs over 4 times as much as the leather Spy's. Love it, hate it, want to know more about it, want to puke on Fendi for using fur, this bag is available for a whopping via Barneys for $8,800.

I kinda think it looks pretty good in my opinion...

Where would you wear that to? I live rather near to Megs. Could you Sport that at the Polaris Mall??? LOLOL
Over 8000 for such an impractical bag...and IMHO, in looks rather Gawdy.

You are right Megs...the description was so nonchalant for 8grand!

Nice bag...perfect for Gstaad or Kitzbuel.

I've never been a fan of Spy bags or fur as bag material, but I think the new spy is GORGEOUS

RoseMary · Dec 14th, 2006, 02:41 PM

nah, don't like it...

karo · Dec 14th, 2006, 04:09 PM

I really like this bag, but I wouldn't buy it, cause I know I would never wear it.

Not a fan whatsoever of a fur bag... besides it looks WAY too high-maintenance for practical use!

I'm sick of the Fendi Spy Bag. It was so 2 yrs ago. Can't Fendi design something else?

Loved this post Megs!

I kind of like it...it looks very soft.

this bag is actually part of a two-page advertisement in the fall 2006 issue of Elle Accessories (my favourite magazine, for obvious reasons) that supports the use of fur in womens accessories and clothing.

I tried attaching scans of the ad to this post, but the files are way to big.

I have no stance on the issue, I just thought I would mention the ad because it is relevant to this thread.
