Prada Ironic Advertisement Wallet

Description

This wallet is ironic. Why, you ask? Well, the Prada image is an advertisement plucked from the very pages of VOGUE magazine -- yes, literally. Typically, an item with a brand as prestigious as Prada would be extremely expensive. Advertising feeds into this prestige and brand-name popularity. By taking the advertisement and -- rather than buying a Prada product -- turning it instead into a product in and of itself with that brand-name on it, we have succesfully usurped the entire silly Brand system. We have taken their advertising and turned it into a handcrafted, DIY duct-tape and paper wallet.

The irony is that the product is a wallet.
The owner of this wallet will hold his/her money in this fabulous, handmade wallet with the Prada brand name on it -- but although he/she touts this brand proudly, no money actually went to it.
Instead it goes directly to the lovely maker of the wallet, me. Lia. Irony queen and brilliant anti-consumerism activist.

The brands available for this fabulous item are:
-Dolce & Gabbana
-Guess
-Chanel
-Prada
-Burberry
-Gucci
-Christian Dior
-Versace

Any brand can be made on request, provided I can find a sufficient advertisement for it.

This particular wallet is gray, white, and lightish purple/pink. Both the front and inner right pocket proudly sport PRADA in big white letters. Inside the wallet is an image of a girl in a fashionable orange and white dress jumping artistically (I beleive it was an advertisement for Lacoste at one point.) There are 4 pockets, suitable for a standard sized credit card. The wallet is 8.3" wide when fully spread out, and 3" tall.
