True Fashionistas Know Scientific Names

This is a poster for Kwanpen crocodile skin bags at
(yet another) high-end purse boutique in HK. I was
struck by their inclusion of the crocodile's
scientific name; somehow I don't think that your
average fashionista is aware of the binomial
nomenclature for her $5000 USD bag, but then again
maybe that's whats separates the truly
discerning shopper from the riffraff. Can you imagine
being seen with a bag made from Crocodylus
Australis? Oh the raised eyebrows would be
unbearable...
