They’ve got great taste.
As New York’s fashion flock descends on runways and afterparties this season, one sweet theme keeps coming through: Food-themed clothes and accessories.
Outside the Cult Gaia show at the American Museum of Natural History on Thursday, influencers like Coco Schiffer posed for pics with the label’s juiciest accessory: a clutch shaped like a giant cluster of grapes.
It’s currently $600 at Saks — only slightly higher than the real fruit, thanks to current inflation woes.
The hunger for style continued at Celine’s Wooster Street boutique, where the Paris line hosted a cocktail in honor of its Reebok collaboration… and served guests like designer Marc Jacobs and actor Dan Levy with a plate of New York hot dogs that spelled “Celine” in mustard.
This being a fashion bash, everybody took pics, but nobody took a bite.
At the Public Hotel on Christie Street, designer Kate Barton paired with Elizabeth Sulcer — the stylist who helped make Bella Hadid into a true couture darling — to serve a collection of pastel tops embroidered with birthday cakes.
Rachel Comey’s new Coco bag made its runway debut with a sweet surprise — pockets for Unreal’s chocolate bars and peanut butter cups. The bag’s outer metallic layer was designed to stop chocolate from melting. (Ironically, it can also help protect GLP-1s from heat damage.)
Meanwhile at the Cherry Lane Theater in the West Village, celebrities like Tom Sturridge, Sarita Choudhury and Alexa Chung munched snacks from custom-designed Dior popcorn boxes, a nod to the fashion house’s new partnership with film studio A24.
“I’m taking it home,” said actress Francesa Scorsese, who tracked — the box matched her Dior sweater.
And despite the jokes about models avoiding carbs like landlords avoid basic repairs, many catwalkers — including ’90s icon Karen Elson — wore Rachel Antonoff’s pasta-print pants, dresses and jackets backstage at the designer’s Webster Hall fashion show.
There’s also been a thirst for Judith Leiber’s $5,965 matcha clutch, which uses crystals instead of caffeine to hook its audience, and comes with a working straw.
But the most in-demand food accessory this season isn’t on a runway. Instead, it’s from Burger King.
The Whopper hub just dropped “Le Nuguette,” a suede bag that looks like a pile of crunchy fast food bites.
It’s adorned with bag charms inspired by dipping sauce flavors (Special Savory, Honey Mustard, Buffalo or Sweet & Sour) and limited to a drop of just 500 bags — 100 each from tomorrow, September 12 through September 16, starting at noon EST.
If you can click-to-buy at lenuguettebk.com fast enough, the suede micro-purse will cost the same as a four-piece nugget order — just $3.99.
Multiply that by 1,000 and you can buy the bread-inspired suede Fendi baguette that’s getting a revival thanks to stars like Olivia Wilde and Jessica Alba.
But if you spill BBQ sauce on that one, good luck…
