The Balenciaga Trash Pouch is a new fad that has sparked conflicting responses throughout the internet. The Parisian luxury brand, which frequently makes headlines for its unconventional and experimental fashion pieces, returned to the scene with the Trash Pouch bag, which was initially displayed during the fashion label’s Fall/Winter 2022 runway show.
Fans of the high-fashion label Balenciaga have been critical of Demna Gvasalia, the brand’s creative director, for introducing a garbage bag-inspired bag with an outrageous $1,790 price tag.
One internet user mocked modern haute fashion and dismissed it as a hoax, saying:
The Balenciaga Trash Pouch bag is currently available for purchase from the fashion label’s e-commerce website. It is being offered in four colorways, blue, black, white, and yellow, with a price tag of $1,790.

<p>With its Trash Pouch bag, which was figuratively inspired by rubbish sacks, the high-end fashion label shocked the internet. The brand’s expensive social experiment is receiving a deluge of nasty comments on Twitter and Instagram.</p>

I really need designer company’s to stop making dumb products and selling them for shit tons of money cause wtf do you mean balenciaga is selling an $1800 trash bag
I love Balenciagas concept of making post ironic fashion by basically trolling rich people, but then it immediately disgusts me when it works and I see rich people actually buy the $1790 trash bag… capitalism is painful twitter.com/kirawontmiss/s…
While some internet users praised Balenciaga for their brilliant marketing, others seemed to be much less impressed. However, a lot of people continued to deride high fashion as a joke and make fun of the Trash Pouch concept.
People filled the comments section of the post about the bag, which Hypebeast had put out. Some thought it was silly, while others wondered if someone would genuinely purchase it as a high-fashion accessory.
Someone else even wrote that now rich people are cosplaying as poor people. One of them claimed it was a metaphor for consumers.

<p>Balenciaga’s Autumn 2022 show paid reverence to the continuing Ukrainian crisis. Demna even gave showgoers a specially made Balenciaga T-shirt that was based on the Ukrainian flag’s color schemes.</p>
<p>The runway setting and presentation itself was a potent and impactful experience. For the show, models were exposed to subzero temperatures inside a glass-enclosed snow machine that separated the audience from the models. This was done to portray how it must have felt for Demna to flee his native Georgia in a manner akin to how families in Ukraine are presently trying to escape the conflict.</p>
<p>In an interview with WWD, Demna spoke about his Trash bag designs:</p>
<blockquote><p>“I couldn’t miss an opportunity to make the most expensive trash bag in the world, because who doesn’t love a fashion scandal?”</p></blockquote>
