Brain Bag by Tim Yu
Known for stretching the fashion limits with his avant garde design for the label Undercover, Jun Takashi recently came out with this Brain Bag. An intricate knit of wool resembling the three-pound jelly structure encapsulated by the skull, it's playful but also looks mature and sophisticated and holds its own among other designer handbags.
I will spare you most of the puns, but for any of you needing or wanting a bit more brain, the one-off handbag is available at Someday.
