Alexander Wang’s Rocco bag, a embossed-leather duffle with studs
all over the bottom, just became "available" for purchase
on his site...but it’s already sold out.

Barneys already has a waiting list of over 400 for the bag, and Wang says the company is going to have to produce extras just to make sure there’s stock in-store.
Now, I think this is a very pretty bag. And I suppose in some circles the fact that an "it" bag's price falls in the sub-$1,000 range makes it affordable, but this is still rather expensive, in my book. I'm not judging the 400+ people patiently waiting to get their hands on it - power to them if they can spend $850 on a bag - I'm more just surprised that there are that many, and wondering what makes this bag so special. The studs? The embossed lambskin? The simple versatility? Or the hype?
