The name of the line is derived from a French slang word meaning "over-the-top attitude," according to architecture and design magazine, Dezeen.

The exuberant pink interior is a nod to the style of the early 2000s, one worker at the store told Insider.

The Le Cagole bag was designed by the fashion giant's creative director, Demna Gvasalia. It's a revamp of Balenciaga's famous Motorcycle bag which was released in 2001 by then creative director, Nicolas Ghesquiere.

The studs and other trimmings on the accessories mimic the Motorcycle bags which were popular in the early 2000s. The heart-shaped tags are also a nod to early 2000s fashion, according to an employee at the store.

Balenciaga plans to use the displays for future projects and is currently looking for different ways to reuse the faux fur, the fashion house told Dezeen.
