If I were Gucci, I’d be pretty miffed about Nordstrom’s decision to carry an exact same version of the Bamboo Daily in- store. This bag under the label Carla Ferreri looks exactly like the Gucci version, only obviously Gucci’s bag is of far more superior quality.
The abovementioned designer might say her bag is inspired by Gucci, but I think there is a verrrry biiig difference between “inspired by” and “directly copied from” and from the looks of the bag above, it is a direct copy of Gucci’s Bamboo Daily Bag (except the Ferreri bag has no “Gucci” inscription at the bottom).
I might have understood if discount retailers Ross or TJ Maxx carried the Carla Ferreri bag (in the same way TJ Maxx did carry a Tod’s Cape Bag twin that was not labelled Tod’s). Thing is, Nordstrom has a Gucci boutique within some of its department stores. And even if the company says its discount division operates separately, the parent company.is still Nordstrom.
This really got me curious– I do wonder what would Gucci say…
But before I end this post, I just want to say that I think the Gucci Bamboo Daily Bag is one of the easiest no- fuss bags that I have carried. Its sides can expand to accommodate more things, so I highly recommend it 🙂
