What the cluck?
Dr Mumbo is soon going to be the proud owner of ‘The Bachelor’s Handbag’ – an eggs-ceptional new piece of haute couture, cooked up by Thinkerbell.
As part of Thinkerbell’s ‘Pot of Gold’ initiative – where employees can pitch a product or innovation to the agency founders and be given a grant to see their idea through – the agency has created a new ‘fashion collective’ called Size Eleven, with its first product coming in the form of a Coles-esque roast chook bag.
It was inspired by the viral phenomenon and 2022 Word of the Year from Macquarie Dictionary of ‘The Bachelor’s Handbag’ – a takeaway roast chicken. Dr Mumbo (totally not Macquarie Dictionary) says the name comes “from the fact that such a chicken requires no further preparation before consumption, so is seen as an easy meal favoured by a single person”.
Described as a “cross-body utility bag inspired by Australia’s rotisserie chicken culture”, the high fashion product has come in hot demand, with customers including Karl Stefanovic, WSFM’s Jonesy, and Man of Many.
Customers are also taking to the streets of Sydney and many other media personalities are going crazy for it, including the elusive Dr Mumbo.

‘The Bachelor’s Handbag’ has a number of eggs-citing, unique features, including:
- Bespoke Satin Strap, Designed for Comfort: Ensuring ease of use in either side holster or cross body configuration, our bespoke satin strap is designed to slide smoothly across ones’ skin. Perfect for long hours spent hakking at the rave.
- Durable Thermoplastic Polymer Bag with Generous Capacity: The Bachelor’s Handbag boasts a premium 160-micron thermoplastic polymer construction, making the bag more durable than any other rotisserie inspired bag on the market. Added durability allows for ample space to carry all of your essential items.
- Quick Access Seal: Designed for practicality, the bag can be securely sealed and easily accessed via Size 11’s bespoke micro-connective fibre technology, protecting your belongings and allowing quick access to whatever you need at both work or play.
- Classic Roast Chicken Flame Design: In homage to its inspiration, the bag features a classic roast chicken flame design, reminiscent of Australia’s vibrant rotisserie chicken culture.
Cock-a-doodle-do? Maybe cock-a-doodle-don’t.
No fowl play here, just pure comedy… Dr Mumbo truly appreciates the humour in this im-peck-able yet peck-uliar initiative.
