<![CDATA[Almost worse than making people wait over...]]> Almost worse than making people wait over an hour for his show to start, Louis Vuitton's Marc Jacobs committed another sin at the LV show over the weekend: Designing fugly handbags. Sure, there were clothes on display on Jacobs' Paris runway, most of which were made of what looked to be layers and layers of tulle, but it was the technicolor accessories — that looked to be emblazoned with cartoons from The New Yorker — that really stood out. Pardon the pun, but we're not convinced these bags will be the "Talk of the Town." Gallery begins below.
