Nik Bentel brings Wes Anderson‘s cinematic world to life with “The Bentel’s Box Bag”, debuting on Wednesday, March 13 at 10 a.m. EST. Inspired by the Mendl’s pastry box from The Grand Budapest Hotel , this bubblegum-pink leather handbag featuring delicate blue ribbon straps that double as a handle, embodies the unique aesthetic of Anderson’s films.

Following his creative reinterpretation of everyday objects into fashion statements, Bentel’s latest venture turns the fictional Mendl’s pastry box into a sling handbag with a spacious interior. Bentel’s passion for storytelling through tangible creations is evident in this piece, which is his studio’s first foray into cinema-inspired design.

Crafted with a magnetic closure and a suede-lined interior, the bag echoes Anderson’s iconic color palette and typography. Each of the limited 300 units comes with a metallic identification card, emphasizing its exclusivity. This fusion of film and fashion is not just a bag but a collector’s item, offering fans a piece of The Grand Budapest Hotel to carry with them.

Available exclusively through Nik Bentel Studio’s website, this limited edition piece invites admirers of Wes Anderson’s work and unique fashion statements to own a slice of cinematic charm.
