Would you buy this bag if you knew part of the money from the sale went to a political party? Designers Rachelle Copeland and Emily Ironi of Alexis Hudson think you would. They teamed up with Los Angeles artist Greg Miller to create the "Change" bag which embodies the creator's vision of the future, i.e., having a healthy planet, economy and society. But what does that even mean anyway? The bag costs $95 with 10% of the proceeds will go to support the Democratic campaign. I'm just curious- are the designers donating to a specific candidate or the DNC?? And the mission of designing bag is to use style and fashion in order to rally a new audience of voters. Last time I checked, 99.9% of the fashion industry and "it" bag carrying girls were already registered Democrats. Not that I'm the expert (when it comes to politics), but if you are going to make a political statement wouldn't you do it in the form of an overt "statement" tee shirt the Marc Jacobs did it? P.S. designer Nili Lotan sent me a "war theme" scarf with machine guns on it. Does that mean I support our president if I wear it? Just sayin'...
