Many said that the new bag resembles the tote bags from IKEA, and they wouldn't be wrong. The part that differentiates the two brands is the price tag. Balenciaga's bag is retailing at over €1,000. The IKEA ones are a lot less than that.
IKEA have responded to this, in the best way possible.
A Swedish agency called ACNE have designed a post which now features on IKEA's website.
