Dooney and Bourke Rainbow Bag - Etsy The Dooney & Bourke Y2K Rainbow "It Bag" (c. 2003–2006) was a vibrant, multi-color monogrammed coated canvas line featuring interlocking "DB" logos. Popularized as an affordable alternative to high-end luxury, it often featured vachetta leather trim, heart-shaped fobs, and bright interiors. Key History & Details: Origin: Devised by Peter Dooney in March 2003 following a trip to Europe with FIT students. The "It" Factor: The collection was designed to mimic the, at the time, new and popular Louis Vuitton Monogram Multicolore.

Design Characteristics: Common features included coated canvas in white or black with multicolor "DB" logos, vachetta leather trim, and, on some models, rainbow-colored zipper hardware.
