Who would have said that the Barbès checks popularised by Parisian Tati stores on its shopping bags - you know those huge bags where anything fits but glamour -would inspire fashion designers. And what to say about those brown and beige checks, the typical Vichy print for bundle handkerchieves... You know,baby,your great-grandmother used one of these to take the clothes to the laundry. How could have we guessed that they would become Prada´s fabrics one day? Or those simple blue and white checks, a common cleaning cloth print that now looks so great turned into a suit. Yes,dear friends, it´s time to fill our wardrobes with rags.

no es la primera vez que la moda se inspira en algo antiguo, dándole un uso muy distinto al que tenía originalmente... ;) sadie está muy glamourosona, aun así.
