Meryl Smith designed a doggy bag called “Excess Baggage” for an exhibition at Honey Space in New York. It was the outcome of her creative spontaneity when she was asked to make sculptures of dimensions that were suited to hold international carry-on luggage. The “Excess Baggage” doggy sports a leather coat with golden print on it. I have serious doubts about the originality and aesthetic caliber of this designer. Have you seen a dog with all kinds of floral prints on its coat along with an unauthorized Louis Vuitton signature all over? I really don’t care whether Louis Vuitton wants to sue Meryl Smith for illegally using the LV logo. At the moment I am experiencing bouts of nausea just by looking at the bag!
The poor dummy has quite a real-looking face and body. The handles look as though they are protruding out of the body of the animal. The worst part is the fake LV zipper on its torso! No wonder the poor doggy looks so very melancholic. I wonder why people use animal forms for making inanimate objects. Aren’t there better ideas?

I guess PETA is not reading/visiting this news. Meryl Smith designed a doggy bag called “Excess Baggage”- this bag looks like a tortured dog (a dead dog pinned with handles on the body). Isn’t it? Well, this is what appears to me. So if the animal rights activists are somewhere nere the exhibition, they may rise voice against it.
Who would love to hang one dead dog, because it can never look lively/walking/barking/playing etc.
yeah Sasmita! Thanks for agreeing with my views on this item. I alomst vomited after writing this article. Actually, i had written about the zipper part but it was edited - can you imagine how grotesque this poor pup is going to look once you open the zipper!–it will look like a dead animal with its back ripped open in an accident....Oh no I feel like puking again!
I think this bag is utterly disgusting- it does look like a dead dog- a dead chihuahua- and it is ugly- i hate the yes- the form, everything about it and i wanted to vomit when i saw it first- r u really that desparate to sell bags to make one that looks taxodermy??
Oh my God!!!! I love it, it’s not a chihuahua, it’s a Xoloitzcuintle, a very rare and very expensive Mexican hairless dog..
HILARIOUS!
