"Objets d' Art for the discerning femme." That's what's written on the Instagram bio of Los Angeles-based fashion brand Cult Gaia. It's a fitting description, as the brand's signature Ark bag proves.
The bag is super-popular with style "influencers", and a staple feature on their Instagram profiles. At first sight, you may not even realise that it's a bag you're looking at. Crafted from bamboo or acrylic, the U-shaped bags resemble baskets, and have been trending internationally this summer. They've been carried by practically every mainstream fashion blogger (see how Dubai-based Mariyah Gaspacho styles hers below), and have even been spotted on celebrities such as Jessica Alba, Emma Roberts and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley.
Fortunately, for UAE residents looking to grab their own Cult Gaia Ark bag, the brand has just landed online at The Modist. Both small and large sizes are available, in acrylic and bamboo styles. While the basket-style exterior makes the bag relatively see-through, and its U-shape can cause storage restraints, these impractical elements haven't deterred the brand's loyal fan base. In fact, when at its launch last year, the bag proceeded to sell out and there was a waiting list of more than 1,800 hopeful customers.
If you're looking to join this style cult, buy yours now at The Modist and enjoy free same-day or next-day delivery within the UAE.
