Runway Fashion Inspired by McDonald’s Branding and Employee Uniforms

Moschino-McDonalds-6-IIHIH

Who knew that McDonald’s, known for fattening up humans, could inspire a line of haute couture worn by waifs?

During this year’s Milan Fashion Week, Moschino unveiled a line of runway fashion inspired by McDonald’s. The challenge, for creative director Jeremy Scott, was to turn the garish red and yellow color scheme into something fashionable.

As a surprise to no one, actual McDonald’s employees are none too pleased — referring to the high-end line as offensive and exploitative to those who only earn minimum wage. That, and being upset that their mandatory unis don’t come with an adorable leather handbag and matching shoes.

Brown Bag Purse

Bringing your own lunch to work goes couture. The Feast, a clutch purse made to look like an everyday brown bag, was created by Marie Turnor.

Boxed Wine Packaged in a Fashion Handbag

Boxed wine just went couture, with a line by Swedish company Vernissage. Designed to look like a high-end handbag, Vernissage makes your wine-to-go even easier to transport, and you can show some style in the process. That is until you pop open the spout, and pour your chardonnay from a cardboard purse — that’s so gauche.

Vernissage is available in red (syrah/cab blend), white (chardonnay/viognier), or rosé. And, when enjoying your new purse wine, make sure that you have a proper glass.
