I've always said the fashion industry is/was huge with boomboxes, seeing shows and models with boomboxes was pretty normal in the 80's, now Dolce & Gabbana is throwing out their new homage to the classic boombox. https://www.dolcegabbana.com/discover/a-brief-history-of-the-boombox/
But will it play music ? Somewhere I have one of these https://www.ebay.co.uk/i/2026371442...MI0JWXiqOq5QIVmLPtCh0tYQyMEAQYAyABEgKFafD_BwE although it was an eBay purchase that turned out to be much dirtier than I would have liked. I removed the speakers with the intention of washing it only to lose them during a house move.
Is that tape in there even real…? That sort-of-article sounds like it's merely a bluetooth speaker/radio in the shape of a boombox with storage space inside. And boy, that chain is so going to scratch that thing if you carry it around… Besides I never got that whole bling thing, so basically what D&G does. This one most definitely really wouldn't be for me (and probably costs a novelty of unreasonable levels anyway).
I think it's like a $20,000 handbag, made to look like a boombox, there seems to be a lot of these in the fashion world.
That price surely doesn't surprise me given the brand… although I really didn't know boombox-y handbags and cases are even a thing. The fashion world is weird.
It came out a couple years ago at $8895.00 USD but you can grab one now for only $6975.00. It shows the amazing power of the boombox! https://www.1stdibs.com/fashion/han...ped-radio-bag-retail-price-8895/id-v_2275233/
