News Flash: Ralph Lauren Giant Ricky Bag is Coming to K-Town!

After New York and Paris, the Ralph Lauren Giant Ricky Bag is coming to Kuwait as the first Middle East stop of its World Tour at the Avenues starting from next week!

To celebrate the launch of the newest “Soft,” “Mini” and “Chain” variations on its iconic Ricky Bag, Ralph Lauren is exhibiting a spectacular “Giant Ricky Bag” at stores around the world. Taking cues from the Soft Ricky Bag, its beautifully crafted archetype, the Giant Ricky took a team of four expert artisans approximately one month to create. Echoing the supple silhouette and handwork throughout — from shaping to creasing to tacking — the Giant Ricky is beautifully outfitted with all of the Soft Ricky’s authentic details, from Italian-made leather construction to its key bell, grommets and functioning lock. Six feet tall and five feet wide, the Giant Ricky Bag is over four times the size of the Soft Ricky and weighs approximately 250 pounds (that's around 120 kilo grams!).

The exhibit travelled from Galeries Lafayette in Paris to the Ralph Lauren flagship store on Saint Germain and then onto the recently reopened Palais Galliera, the museum of fashion. After Paris, the Clementine Giant Ricky travelled to the Ralph Lauren flagship New Bond Street store in London before departing for the Maximilianstrasse store in Munich.

Yowza! That's one hell of a bag! Big enough to stuff half of my closet inside! Actually, it would make the perfect dream bag for travelling, if only it would pass the security check...
