MCM has opened its first boutique in Bangkok at the
world-class entertainment, shopping and dining destination, the EMQuartier. To
toast the boutique première, the German luxury brand has introduced an
exclusive limited-edition backpack model in Thai blue, “designed for dynamism and
decadence”, the company says. Only 100 pieces are available.

| MCM special-edition BKK backpack |
Representing royalty, solidarity, prosperity
The design of the BKK backpack is a nod to Thai blue,
representing royalty, solidarity and prosperity. The blue hue signifies the
historic monarchy and symbolises Friday and Saturday within Thailand’s national
colours of the day. To be born on these days is considered to be auspicious –
with several kings, queens, princes and princesses born on these days.
Using MCM’s signature Dual Stark shape, the
multi-functional backpack has a detachable front pocket that doubles as a
cross-body bag. The two-in-one design is
embellished with pyramid-shaped studs on the front featuring alternating silver
and graphite metallics. Crafted with a coated canvas body and leather trim, the
BKK backpack features four interior pockets, including a padded technology
compartment.
