This is what high-end fashion looks like these days: garbage.

The luxury fashion company Balenciaga has released what they call the “Trash Pouch,” costing $1,790.

According to the New York Post, ‘the luxury fashion house’s shiny drawstring bag — which is made out of calfskin leather, emblazoned with a subtle logo and comes in the basic Hefty bag black along with the solid Glad-esque white as well as yellow and blue — is making its way to stores after debuting in the Fall 2022 ready-to-wear collection in Paris last March.’

I couldn’t miss an opportunity to make the most expensive trash bag in the world, because who doesn’t love a fashion scandal?

Balenciaga’s creative director Demna Gvasalia told Women’s Wear Daily at the time.

After sitting front at Balenciaga’s fashion show earlier this year, celebrity Kim Kardashian was able to get her hands on one before their release this coming fall.

Look what I got. I got the ‘trash bag’ bag from the show. I am so excited. How cool is this?

She said on Instagram at the time, reported by Page Six

AUTHOR COMMENTARY

Thou hast made us as the offscouring and refuse in the midst of the people.

They that did feed delicately are desolate in the streets: they that were brought up in scarlet embrace dunghills.

Lamentations 3:45, 4:5

All jokes aside, this is representative of where society is at: glorification of trash and refuse. That’s all people’s lives are anymore: waste to be thrown away.

But as for them whose heart walketh after the heart of their detestable things and their abominations, I will recompense their way upon their own heads, saith the Lord GOD.

Ezekiel 11:21

[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).

  • $1,790 for a “fashionable” trash bag? I can get a box of Hefty bags for like $5 maybe less! Absolutely absurd, but it fits America perfectly. America is garbage!

      • Very wonderful! I live in trash, Cynthia: it’s called Laredo, Texas. A Roman Catholic dominated piece of land that has been turned into hell, and also the Vatican’s daughters called Protestant denominations are also big here as well as witchcraft, sex perversion, and corruption of all sorts.
        God is calling me out of this mess, first and foremost with salvation.

  • This is hilarious! The ship has sailed Proverbs 27:22
    Though thou shouldest bray a fool in a mortar among wheat with a pestle, yet will not his foolishness depart from him.

    • That’s also a good verse, Magnolia. I never thought in my wildest dreams that a trash bag would be considered fashionable. $1,790 for this? Save your cash!

  • For $1,700, you could build a fairly powerful basic emergency solar generator system for the upcoming grid collapse and or power plant blackouts. Of course you can get a decent solar generator system for less than $150 if your main goal is to be able to power a usb fan or charge something small like a MP3 player or a light.

    But no, sadly people would rather spend their $1,700 on a trash hand bag these days, it would seem.
