East Side, West Side, all around the town,
The tots sang "Ring-a-rosie," "London Bridge is falling Down";
Boys and Girls together, me and Mamie O'Rorke,
Tripped the light fantastic on the sidewalks of New York.
-James W. Blake (1894)
Bottega Veneta's "NYCabat" bag is historical as well as fashionable. It marks the first time a high-end designer has ever used the iconic yellow and black taxi cabs of NYC as a muse/inspiration. The hand brushed nappa leather bag is limited to 50 pieces and is only available in NYC.
Tomas Maier, the Creative Director of Bottega Veneta, says about the NYCabat “the taxi was shorthand for New York: bold, unyielding, exhilarating, a vehicle, quite literally, to so many possibilities. The new Cabat reflects my feeling that, as much as the city and the world have changed, New York remains incredibly vibrant.”
The bag will be available for purchase in November and pre-orders are being accepted: http://www.bottegaveneta.com/
