according to paper mag, fashion designer alexandre herchcovitch has teamed up with johnson & johnson to create these limited edition band-aids, currently available throughout brazil (herchovitch's home turf) and at opening ceremony. skinning your knee has never been this chic!what do you think, stick to neutral or cover your boo-boos with these pretty little things?

Man those Brazilians are lucky! I would definately put those band-aids on for absolutely no reason besides the fact that they're cool.
i think these are fun! plus, it's not as if they'll always be covering our knees, since it was only in childhood that i would scrape them up on a daily basis.
My favorite is the black and white striped one, quite fun!
this isn't his first non-traditional collaboration. he also redesigned the McDonald's uniforms in brazil recently.
Have I totally lost my mind, or do I seem to remember period in the late 80s when it was chic to wear neon colored bandaids as accessories? Even if I'm crazy and that never happened, it still makes sense. Anything can be fashion, right?
that's really fun! might make your injury a lot happier and cooler, haha.
Personally I like happy faces better!
A nice patterned band aid on the knee is always a good accessory. haha
Ooh how fun.
Those are so cool! Probably the closest I'll ever get to wearing something by a designer. Nude colored band aids are noticeable anyways, might as well have fun with your injury.
I kinda love them a lot. Camilla, I think it was a real fad. I know in the early 90's I would put colored Band Aids Down the backs of my Doc Martin Boots. Oh lord I can't believe I typed that out loud. Anyway I would totally use those band-aids, I never buy the nude ones anyway always the colorful kid ones.
now these...are pretty darn cool.
I'm going to go to Brazil and climb a tree, jump out of a swing at full height, or maybe just fall over the handlebars of my bike. ;)
I have your lovely blog on my roll... would you like to trade links?
LOL. I will just stick to my spongebob or hello kitty bandaids x)
Wow-very funky!!
thats cool
hey, i've added you to my blog roll if you want to swap links!
that is insane.
Those are fun. I prefer to just not get injuries, though, to being THAT fashionable:))
Ohh! Herchcovitch!! i just LOVE! your closes, shoes, bags, all.
yess brazilians!
I pick those! I always get cartoon band-aids and stick 'em on my boo-boos. They're much more fun.
Herchcovitc band-aids top plain band-aids any day of the week. If I'm going to get all dinged up, I might as well show off my gnarly wounds with cool band-aids!
oh these are such fun! I always wanted sesame street ones and my mom wouldn't get them:(
By the way, you've been TAGGED!
How cool is that???!
Wow! That is insane. I wish we had those here.
Neutrals for sure! But these are fun.
i'm all about pretty band-aids :)
Um, this is awesome (!!!). I would totally fall down on purpose just to have an excuse to make usage of of them. Neat. :]
i probably wouldn't use them but buy them purely on the basis that Alexandre Herchcovitc designed them =]
hmmm.
these are fun.
do you know how much they are?
I would stick to the original bandaids for myself, but these are very cool!
I try to stay away from bringing attention to my injuries so I think I'll stick with the neutral ones. They are fun though!

Tks.
Not fair! I would totally scrape up my knees just to get my hands on a box :)
i would definitely use those! my favorite bandaids have always been printed ones. i just wonder how much they cost...?
you've been tagged!
xo
Those are awesome. With how often I end up with scrapes I really should get some cute bandages.
Fashion is pain?

wow..those are so cool!!i love the art!!
animal printed are for kinds..and this for us!
I'd certainly go for those.
i would pretend to have a cut to wear theseQ
I'd stick to the neutral ones on me but I'd use these as stickers!
That is amazing I wonder whwer you get these
That's so random. Designers seem to be doing all sorts of collabs nowadays.
Oh I love these! Definitely these over neutral. I'm not the biggest Hello Kiddie fan, but she is on my band-aids and I love them... so I imagine I'd be quite receptive to herchcovitc's designs.
This is amazing, kids have the disney themed ones, so it's only fair...love them!
THEY ARE TOO COOL.
oh. i have a NEW POST. finally...
damn finals...
love. xo.
ooh love them! i think it's a great idea as it's not like a bandaid can't be seen (they don't exactly camoflage themselves into your skin) so you might as well flaunt it!
Thats such a fun idea!
designer band- aids were made for luxaholics! I would totally wear these over the boring regular skin tone band-aids!! These are fabulous!
Must get them NOW. I love Alexandre Herchcovitc!
i love the concept of brand-aids... BCBG ; )
