forbitches

Founded by Italian designer Gio Forbice, who has a background in shoe design and collaborations with Fenty x Puma and Hood by Air, forBitches is a whimsical and provocative handbag label. The brand emerged from Forbice's fascination with the world of toys, drawing direct inspiration from a visit to a doll factory. The collection's signature is its use of cellulose diacetate and TPU, the same molded synthetics used to make dolls, to create its tiny, sculptural carryalls. The bags come in playful, girly shapes like butterflies, bows, and bears in vibrant, candy-like colors.\n\nforBitches channels a distinct Y2K pop culture aesthetic, referencing icons like Britney Spears and Paris Hilton to cultivate a style that blends innocence with a modern, sexy edge. The compact bags are designed to hold just the essentials for a night out, functioning as statement pieces that evoke a sense of fun and nostalgia. The brand gained significant popularity in the early 2020s, embraced by those seeking unique and daring fashion accessories that stand apart from traditional luxury.
