re: Heidi - she doesn't "own" her look at all. anyone know what i'm trying to say?
Right. I totally agree. She's like a puppet, she does whatever the people with the checkbook tell her to do. Get married. Go have a picnic in a bizarre place. Pose for pictures. Go to the pumpkin patch. Be religious. Wear this giant bag. Whatever.
She is so photographed that she gets bags for free - but I don't think Balenciaga knows it might be doing more harm than good!
As for the giant sized bag during the daytime... in Paris right now huge bags are totally in, so, maybe that is where she is getting it from?
