Ever picked up a tacky souvenir on holiday that you knew was rubbish but had to have? Well the good news is you’re trendy now. Fashion house Balenciaga has unveiled a range inspired by the tacky gifts bought on holiday. The ‘I love Paris ’ collection features £70 postcards and ponchos for a whopping £1,150.

You might be better off saving the money to actually visit the city, which is already becoming more expensive to visit . They feature landmarks in the French capital such as the Eiffel Tower , Arc de Triomphe or Sacré-Cœur and are emblazoned with the popular tourist slogan of ‘I love Paris’. A pair of flip flops, with a choice of landmarks, will set you back £320.

While a brass and steel keyring with the Eiffel Tower and the Balenciaga logo on will set you back £325. An ‘I love Paris’ white porcelain mug costs £70. For the same price, Balenciaga is also selling a set of seven postcards.

The paper cards have landmarks on the front and blank on the back, like a traditional bargain postcard. The most expensive item in the collection is a black plastic hooded poncho. It has ‘I love Paris and & Balenciaga’ on the back and front and will set you back an eye-watering £1,150.

One shopper said: ‘It looks like tat you’d pick up from a stall on the street. You’d expect to pay a few quid for them, not several hundred.’ The collection has been launched to coincide with Balenciaga’s Haute Couture show for the Paris Fashion Week.
