WHAT'S THAT SMELL? Matelasse Hobo by Miu Miu, with putrid zombie
EXHIBIT D
REANIMATED VILENESS
Here Miu Miu pays homage to Tarman, the star zombie in 1985's Return of the Living Dead. According to a Miu Miu press release, "The company first created this quilted nappa leather bag ($1095) in 1987, then brutally poisoned it, allowing it to decay for decades before reviving it with 2-4-5 Trioxin gas, a proprietary process which accounts for the bag's unique stench and distinctive texture, as well as its compulsion to eat brains."
