She makes it crystal clear that nothing is forever, not even the idea of fashion

There have always been voices stating that fashion trends are merely the whims of some bored to death people who have a lot of time at their disposal. Well, there are also many examples about to contradict that poisonous rumor and to show to the world that fashionable items can also be fun to watch, smell, and, why not, worthy of being eaten. Nancy Wu brought this to the art level when designing her beef purses and other amazing accessories, like the innovative hybrid shoes.

As the one “guilty” of such fashion crime is actually a product design specialist, the way her ideas turn into facts could be interpreted as an interior undermining of what accessories trends usually mean. Still, no doubt that the products of her imagination, taking to extremes the continuous reshaping and reinventing of fashion, might appear quite tempting.

The beef sliced, then sewn, has been consequently turned into a glam purse or wallet, and it definitely needs no presentation. It would pay the price though and could be easily “put together” if the fashionista in you just can't find a proper match for the new genuine leather shoes. How about that for a fashion signature. For the sake of the outfit and its integrity, one should only remember not to eat it.

In what concerns those special shoes she's been thinking of, they're not such big news, actually. The idea of roman sandals has been reinvented itself since the Antiquity, and it will be worn many years ahead (not to mention the climate change). On the other hand, Nike shoes have never looked this refreshing - they used to be just some classic sports shoes, pretty much like all the others. With just a few cuts, a whole new image. You wouldn't be advised to do that at home, though.
