Student’s offal-ly good handbag designs

As fashion designs go, some might say it is just offal.

An Edinburgh student is certain to divide opinions after creating a handbag lined with the stomach lining of a Highland cow.

Jocelyn Mather, a design student at Edinburgh Napier University, said: “My lecturer kept saying they would look great on Lady Gaga.”

Her four statement bags, which will go on display at the university’s Creative Degree Show from Friday, were all hand-stitched. The fastenings are also made using the animal’s horns and bull-ring.

The show runs until June 2.
