Rizzle Kicks star Jordan Stephens has been pictured with the hottest handbag of the year – Lidl’s ‘Croissant Bag’. The supermarket’s £50 clutch in the shape of the baked good sold out in less than two minutes last week – and the ‘Down with the Trumpets’ rapper was seen sporting it in Greenwich in London last Wednesday.
The accessory was designed by Nik Bentel, who was also behind the internet-breaking ‘Pasta Bag’. And now, Jordan joins the legions of ‘Croissant Handbag’ superfans amid the hip-hop duo’s comeback.
One fan took to social media to proclaim, “I’d give my life for this”, while another declared it to be the “most beautiful creation I’ve seen”. A separate follower even enthusiastically stated, “THIS IS SO CUTE WHAT THE HECK”.
But those desperate for the chance to grab one will have a chance at a special London Fashion Week event later this week. The Patisserie Lidl pop-up will showcase the inspiration behind the viral accessory and shoppers who missed out on the initial sale can get their hands on one of leather handbags.
With the price of the bag remaining at £50, it is being sold on a first-come first-served basis. The pop-up will also be serving a range of Lidl’s baked goods – with an abundance of the handbag’s muse, the ‘All Butter Croissant’.
It is taking place at 55A Dean Street, London, W1D 6AG between 09:00 and 16:00 from Friday 13th September and Saturday 14th September.
