Everyone
loves handbags (everyone here, at least) and everyone loves animals
(unless you’re a sociopath, in which case, I’m a little creeped out), so
it’s not particularly surprising that the animal sculptures that Louis
Vuitton commissioned from British artist Billie Achilleos have taken on a
life of their Louis Vuitton Outlet
own. Achilleos’ work was first intended for display at the brand’s
London maison, but since its debut, the collection has traveled among
some of Vuitton’s fanciest boutiques. Now that the animals are making a
stop in the brand’s Waikiki store, there’s a new dude in town – a Louis
Vuitton turtle.
As
some of you already know, all of the animals in this collection are
made out of Louis Vuitton leather goods – not the raw materials, but the
goods themselves, deconstructed to their basic parts and reassembled as
sculptures of animals, from the mundane to the exotic. The turtle,
meant to embody Hawaiian turtle louis vuitton handbags
goddess Kaiula who watches over children on the shores, was made
especially for the Honolulu boutique. The full collection, which you can
see below, will be on display in the store through August 31. We’ve
talked about Louis Vuitton, the business, quite a bit lately, so we
thought it might be a nice change of pace to consider, for a moment,
Louis Vuitton, the bags. Although the company is in the middle of a
strategy change, the bags that are beloved by millions are still there,
still being updated and embellished in clever ways to satisfying the
ceaseless churn of fashion. For Pre-Fall 2013, that willingness to Louis Vuitton Sunglasses play on classics has yielded the Louis Vuitton Speedy Damier Paillettes.
The
bag comes in a black-and-brown version, below, that mimics the
traditional Damier Ebene fabric, but I’m feeling particularly partial to
the navy embellishment that you see above. Navy is going to be a huge
trend for fall, but it’s slightly under the radar now, and this kind of
slightly sparkly nod to the look is a perfect way to experiment. The
navy leather handles and clochette are also a nice touch, and as always,
a big advantage Damier is that the trim isn’t vachetta and won’t wear
as obviously as it does on the monogram bags. These bags likely won’t
inspire love from people who think Vuitton’s signature moves are getting
old, but the brand has a wide, ardent base of customers who love
designs exactly like this one. louis vuitton shoes
Personally, I think all bag lovers need at least one Speedy in their
collections, and for some of you, this one might be it. When Pre-Fall
2013 bags hit stores soon, you’ll be able to pick this one up for $2,360
via Louis Vuitton. For now, you can shop the brand via its official
website.
The
store also has limited-run San Francisco beach towels and sandals, but
the bag, the latest in the Articles de Voyage Neverfull series, is
naturally where our curiosity lies. If you’re a San Francisco native or
resident with a lot of pride in your city and a love for Louis Vuitton,
this piece is a total must-have. If Vuitton ever made one for Atlanta,
I’d snatch it up in a second, so I can imagine that the SF version will
be gone before you know Louis Vuitton Rolling Luggage
it. The bag, which retails for $1,430, is only available at the SF
pop-up until the America’s Cup concludes on September 21, so head down
to Pier 27/29 while you still can.
