The Cookie Bag

Trend Design
Written By Global Summit Association

Puppets and Puppets is a ready to wear and accessories fashion line started in 2018 by Carly Mark. The brand grew as an extension of Mark's art practice, with the first three collections consisting of one-off pieces created without the intention of being sold as products. Retailers quickly approached Mark with interest in carrying the line, and Mark accepted the challenge to meet the demand while still designing collections that satisfied her artistically and intellectually. The Cookie Bag is the perfect representation of this synthesis.

 

Puppets and Puppets

Carly Mark designed the Cookie Bag as an object that would reflect the art and fashion world’s she straddles. The bag engages in the luxury fashion world, functioning as a fashion accessory, while also commenting on it. Where a logo would normally be, a hyperrealistic cookie sculpture sits. The symbol of luxury and exclusivity is replaced by a replica of the universally loved and accessible chocolate chip cookie. It is immediately engaging and executed with great seriousness, but unavoidably funny and inviting.

The Cookie Bag made its debut as part of Puppets and Puppets’ Fall/Winter 2021 collection, and has since become the flagship piece in an expanded accessories assortment. Mark continues to play with the form and expectations of luxury products, adding spoon handles, overripe bananas, chrome spiders, and more.
