Apparently Barack's message of change and hope brought "designer" Timmy Woods hopelessly back to vintage style. Even if you love true vintage, you may be bummed by this red, white and blue homage to Obama's "logo". I imagine most recessionistas and even Obama-crushers would not feel a strong desire to show off this branded symbol, even for we who think it holds a better message than Ls, Vs and flowers. Woods's work was previously showcased in Sex and the City and I'm afraid poor, classy Michelle Obama will be forced to "flaunt' this creation, possibly at the Democratic National Convention.
But will she be alone? This garbage bag will sell to the public, with partial proceeds going to charity. I picture this dressing up the walls of handbag-enthusiasts' collection areas much more than dangling far below their shoulders.
I bet, no know, that fellow fashionistas and Etsy crafters could sketch better and more stylish interpretations of political idolatry and ideology. In fact, I'd love to see your work, especially if there's interest in a contest! Leave me a comment.
