In the art world, artists often produce their work using “Trompe-l’œil” technique that creates optical illusions in their pieces. A trick of the eye has been adopted (again) by Maison Martin Margiela and this piece will definitely raise your eyebrows. The design of Maison Martin Margiela Flattened Bottom Bag means to deceive your eyes. It’s surely grabbing your attention and perhaps driving you crazy? I don’t know what is Margiela’s intension but if he is trying to incorporate a sense of humor into this piece I’m not sure that he pulls it off. A seemingly playful, albeit ridiculous handbag. One thing I know is that I won’t be a fool spending twelve hundred dollars for this fool-the-eye bag.
