The World's Ugliest Bags

Racked is no longer publishing. Thank you to everyone who read our work over the years. The archives will remain available here; for new stories, head over to Vox.com, where our staff is covering consumer culture for The Goods by Vox. You can also see what we’re up to by signing up here.

As part of Racked's month-long Giveaway Extravaganza, our west coast sister site has asked readers to send in pictures of the ugliest bags they can find. The winner gets a copy of Freeman Hall's book Retail Hell, but the rest of us get to view a truly stunning gallery of hideous purses, so in a way, we're all winners, aren't we? [Racked LA]
