What would Coco say?
Looks like Thursday Friday hasn’t learned its lesson. The canvas tote bag company will launch its new set of knockoff totes tomorrow. See the rest of the images after the jump.
Tomorrow, Thursday Friday will unveil their newest potential canvas controversy, the “Diamond Together bag” collection, which looks a heck of a lot like an original quilted Chanel bag, sans the signature interlocking “Cs.”
The launch will incorporate a regular “Together bag” ($65) an even roomier tote, the “Super Together bag” ($95) , a blown-up version of the original Together tote, plus a line of smaller bags, “Here wallets” ($35), with key chains made of fox fur, seen below.
Here’s your Thursday Friday refresher course, in case you’re not familiar:
First, there was the Thursday Friday Together bag--a canvas tote donning a screen print of an Hermès Birkin. They got sued by Hermès for copyright infringement.
Then came the Thursday Friday Braids Together bag that looked exactly like a signature Miu Miu bag. Thanks in large part to the huge amount of publicity the Hermès lawsuit got, the totes had a three-month wait list. [Which, need we remind you, is longer than the Birkin bag waitlist–because the Hermès Birkin Bag wait list never existed. For serious.]
And finally, last week, Thursday Friday discovered that Indian company Sudesh Art was selling knocked-off versions of their knockoffs on eBay. Karma’s a bitch, ain’t she?
If, after all of this, you’re wondering where you can get yourself one: the Diamonds Together bags will be available tomorrow at Thursday Friday.
Better act fast: we have a feeling Chanel isn’t going to put up with this for long.
