Not a fan of vegetables? Then this fashion brand might just change your mind! Italian luxury brand, Moschino, unveiled its newest collection and what caught our eyes was their food-inspired Celery bag. Yes, you read that right! The “celery-shaped” clutch has a digital print that gives a three-dimensional effect. But that’s not it, this bizarre clutch has been priced at a whopping $4,470 (Rs 3.75 lakh). Called the “Sedano Bag,” this celery-shaped bag is light green in colour with leaves and branches emerging out as the vegetable. Describing the bag, the brand wrote, “The leaves and branches in Nappa leather are meticulously handcrafted in two shades of green to add depth, harmony, and realism to the accessory.”

The celery bag is not the only food-inspired item in the collection. Moschino also released a baguette-inspired bag – priced at $1,205 – that is hard to distinguish from real food. This is not the first time that Moschino is making headlines for its quirky bags. Back in 2014 as a part of its fall collection, the Italian brand unveiled a McDonald’s-inspired bag that had its signature yellow ‘M’ on top of it.
