Exclusive: Show Off Your Transylvanian Style With New ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW Loungefly Bags
This year marks the fiftieth anniversary of one of the greatest movie musicals of all time, and the Transylvanians aren’t pulling any punches when it comes to celebrations. FANGORIA is excited to partner with Loungefly to exclusively reveal the new items they’ll be releasing to celebrate fifty years of The Rocky Horror Picture Show, so that you can look your best whether you’re heading to the Frankenstein Place or anywhere else.
Loungefly is releasing two special new bags that celebrate the iconography of Rocky Horror, both featuring the iconic lips that make an appearance both in the film’s logo and in its opening number, “Science-Fiction Double Feature.” The first is their traditional mini backpack, featuring black quilted faux leather with silver stud cones and a front pocket shaped like the lips. Retailing for $80USD, the bag comes with adjustable shoulder straps and a coordinated interior lining that features silhouettes of Frank-N-Furter, Magenta, Columbia, and more.
The second bag, for those whose fashion sense leans a little more Transylvanian, is a crossbody bag shaped just like those oh-so-recognizable lips, with matching interior lining featuring the same silhouettes as the mini backpack. With a puffed applique and an adjustable crossbody strap, the bag retails for $70USD and is perfect for a Halloween outing, a Rocky Horror shadow show, or when simply want to take Frank-N-Furter’s advice — “don’t dream it, be it.”
Loungefly’s newest releases are just the latest in a long line of events and merch celebrating Rocky Horror’s fiftieth anniversary. Also on offer are the late Mick Rock’s book of set photographs from the making of the film, a forthcoming documentary about the production process, and more, including a new 4K release of the film and a special pressing of its earworm soundtrack on vinyl.
Both Rocky Horror Picture Show bags will be available to purchase on Loungefly’s website. You can get a better look at them down below:
