A 24,000 Shekel Bag: Dua Lipa's Unusual Airport Accessory
International pop star Dua Lipa stunned passengers at New York's JFK Airport by ditching standard carry-on luggage for a massive accessory that sparked a viral online debate.
Who said a beach bag cannot double as carry-on luggage? International pop star Dua Lipa turned heads as she walked through the corridors of JFK Airport in New York. Instead of a classic suitcase or a small luxury handbag, the singer opted for a massive, eye-catching raffia bag from the fashion house Chanel.
This viral accessory, estimated to be worth approximately 8,100 dollars (over 24,000 shekels), was first revealed during the brand's cruise collection show in Biarritz. As reported by Marie Claire, Lipa paired the oversized bag—adorned with a nautical stripe pattern and a prominent logo—with a matching striped sweater from the same collection, straight-cut jeans, and dark sunglasses.
The bold choice comes after a summer of frequent travel, including flights on the Europe-New York route. The look immediately became the talk of the day on social media; according to W Magazine, many users humorously wondered how the star managed to pass off the giant bag as a "personal item" during boarding without encountering any issues with the airline.
