Hopefully these Luxury Band Aids won't inspired anyone to cut themselves just so they can wear it because these are pretty cool to look at on its own.
Yes, the Luxury Band Aids do have the logos of Louis Vutton and Christian Dior on them, but it's not actually from nor is it designed by either of the brands. The minds behind this combination of first aid with high-end fashion comes from Christina Zehnder and Daniel Vetterli. The logos have been printed with a screen printing technique. The idea behind this design was to parody brands luxury brands and consumption, which is pretty smart if you ask me.
So far only Louis Vutton and Christian Dior have been the only brands incorporated into the designs. Hopefully other high-end fashion companies will be added into the mix.
