I know, too much a good thing...
but, IT'S AN HERMES KELLY BAG!
Hermes & Selfridges" have teamed up on a unique - & extremely cool! - interactive experience which showcases what life would be like inside a beige toile & tan leather Kelly bag. Thanks to video technology and special effects, the fully immersive and multisensory exhibit lets you walk inside a 4 meter high replica of the world's original "it" bag and feel positively dwarfed...as if you were but one of the enormous owner's accessories about to be picked up and used."
"Three one-minute films portray the lady owner dancing with a gentleman, bicycling on a picnic, and playing on a swing (and who wouldn't love to be tucked inside the bag of a woman who carries her Kelly to dine al fresco or go swinging?). "The augmented reality of the Kellydoscope makes the viewer inside the bag feel all the movements related to each experience," they explain about this modern look at the iconic bag first created back in the 1930s and famed for being actress Grace Kelly's favorite fashion arm candy.
"The Kellydoscope, which took over five months to develop and build, is also the most startling opportunity to admire the exacting craftsmanship involved in the manufacturing of a Kelly as Hermes - the epitome of luxury accessories - has ensured that every detail of the regular-sized Kelly is faithfully reproduced in the Kellydoscope version, but fifteen times bigger."
AND JUST IN CASE YOU FORGOT...
"The iconic bag was created by Robert Dumas in the 1930s and its structure and timelessly unadorned lines broke with the ornate fashions that were so popular at the time when a large-model croc version appeared in a magazine photo in 1956 on the arm of Grace Kelly, it was rumored she was using it to hide a burgeoning baby bump." via Fashion Tribes
12 feet of luxury? Oh yes, please.
