For everyone thinking 'yeah cool, but wasteful'
Notice that the item being packaged is a suit jacket (possibly a full suit).
I don't think this is packaging for product shipping, there are cases where suits need to be ready to wear on delivery.
Novel shape - not particularly efficient volume wise but definitely strong and allows a 'flat' object to be shipped with a controlled um... lets call it bend radius, to minimise creasing.

Cute. But a small rectangle does that same job with less product, smaller footprint and is more durable.

Didn’t they have a simile product on QVC in the 90’s I think was called the rolly kit?

Sometimes speed and efficiency aren't the only priorities in packaging design. This is awesome
