Aritzia has teamed up with London photographer Harley Weir to create some of the most frame-worthy shopping bags we’ve ever seen (seriously, we’re tempted to ditch the merch, lovely as it is, and hang some of these beauties on our walls).
It’s all part of the retailer’s ongoing Artistic License program, which, in past years, has included super-talented collaborators like the Lower Mainland’s own Karin Bubaš (a proud Emily Carr grad). Weir, who often hand-treats her work by smearing, scratching and painting directly on the negatives, will showcase several of her finest images on Aritzia’s Spring 2015 shopping bags (available mid-March until year’s end). Look for two lippy close-ups from a past Double magazine shoot, a pillow that was featured in Interview magazine and landscape shots from Hot & Cool mag.
Collect ’em all, indeed. —Noa Nichol
