Louis Vuitton Technicolor Summer 2008 Handbags
Louis Vuitton is primarily a leather goods brand and ready-to-wear Show Spring Summer 2008 in Paris showed that.
Twigger from the Purse blog posts: “The color palette was beautiful and vibrant, full of blues, yellows, watermelon pinks, and so much more. However, Marc Jacobs decided to throw them all on one bag! Bags with 3 or more colors, plus different colored handles”. An interesting twist on the bags was somewhat psychedelic monogram patterns, as well as turning many of the iconic bags into frame bags with little tags hanging that stated their name (i.e. papillon, speedy, and alma). There is an adorable, if too saccharine sweet, quilted bag in yellow, pink and mint green made of an interesting and smartly done mix of satin, cloth, canvas and patent. There are patent (or PVC?) bags that look like production mistakes with bleeding, double stamped and spray painted prints. A few ostrich bags were shown.
Others had handbag names cheekily printed on tags or the bags themselves. Quirky bags include cartoon prints on velvet and what appears to be calf hair. And then there is the collaboration with artist Richard Prince, whose spray paintings and text appeared on the snakeskin trimmed bags carried by supermodel Stephanie Seymour .There are also bags with ‘Louis Vuitton’ spelled out all over the bag (Think last season’s Marc Jacobs bags that did the same). This season is definitely not for the faint-hearted, or for someone looking for a classic piece to carry for years.
I am intrigued enough to wonder what bags will actually make it into production. ” She is right. Morover I would like to know what creative director Marc Jacob caused the change from timeless classic beije and brown colors to technicolor? I personally love it.
By the way, only the glamazon supermodels of the 1990s can bring realism to the sexy nurses that opened for the Louis Vuitton runway show in Paris. Check the gallery, can you spot Stephanie Seymour, Eva Herzigova, Nadja Auermann, and Naomi Campbell?
