Sofia Coppola Louis Vuitton SC bag

I don't know about you, but I'm excited for the March release of the SC from Sofia Coppola's collaboration with Louis Vuitton.

The SC bag is Sofia's modified Speedy.  She's added a shoulder strap, and the handle has a longer drop but what I like is the extended zipper.  We often get feedback that the Speedy is difficult to get in and out of- because of the short zipper.   It also has a cell pocket, and a slot for a mirror and credit cards.

Sofia’s Choice

Sofia Coppola Louis Vuitton SC bag

When Sofia Coppola went to design the bag she was doing for Louis Vuitton- she just went for what she loved in a bag- but couldn't find.  A simple bag- that wasn't too slouchy or structured... in colors other than black.  She went through a bunch of sketches before finally coming up with the "SC"... basically revisiting the traditional Louis Vuitton Keepall- but in a smaller day bag size.

She also came up with this cute little envelope style evening bag!  Apparently, she had so much fun with the whole thing, she's already thinking of doing a smaller version of the SC.

What do you think of Sofia's creation?

Sofia Coppola’s Louis Vuitton SC Bag

Soffia Coppola Louis Vuitton

Well, here's the first glimpse of Sofia Coppola's Louis Vuitton "SC" bag.

From a great article today from IHT:

"Coppola was inspired by a trip to Louis Vuitton's original home in Asnières, on the outskirts of Paris. Working with the special order department, she took up the challenge of designing 'the perfect bag that doesn't exist.'"

"Coppola wanted a day bag that was "chic, discreet and lightweight and that isn't enormous," adding that "it is hard to find bag without a lot of hardware." She opens the roomy bag (selling in the monogram version at €1,600, or about $2,190), showing how there is an open pocket enabling her to grab her telephone. The evening clutch (€800), with its pochette containing a mirror, is "a thing I wanted for myself."

The article also says that they decided on calling the bag SC, partially because it was hard to find a name that wasn't registered.  There was already a "Sofia" Marc Jacobs bag.

Anyway, excited to see it IRL and in monogram.  It looks big, and roomy- soft and versatile.  I like a nice big simple bag.

I thought they were slowing the Collaborations?

Sofia Coppola for Louis Vuitton

Do you remember reading that?

I mean, this one's right on the heels of Louis Vuitton's Rei Kawakubo/CDG collaboration, as well as the announcement of the mash-up they're doing with shoes & Kanye West.

But it looks like Sofia Coppola will be their latest partner.  WWD is reporting that Louis Vuitton is working with Sofia on a line of shoes and bags.  Her stuff will launch in Japan, but will be available worldwide.

There's no doubt that Marc Jacobs loves her.  She's famously regarded as his muse.  I love this Marc Jacobs quote about her:

"She is young and sweet and beautiful... the epitome of this girl I fantasize of."

We'll see.

Francis Ford Sofia Coppola Louis Vuitton

It isn't coming up on the US site yet, but you can take a sneak peek on Louis Vuitton Japan.

I really do love that Louis Vuitton is getting back to what made it a great company- the focus on travel- the "Journey".

This is the most recent installment of Louis Vuitton's Core Values Campaign.  LV/Marc Jacobs have pulled together a Motley Crew for these spots.  We've been graced with learning more from Louis Vuitton on the Journey's of Keith Richards, Steffi Graf, and Andre Agassi so far, are Sofia and Francis Ford Coppola.

Louis Vuitton Journey Sofia Francis Ford Coppola

As we reported back in April.

Here they are relaxing in Argentina... Sofia and Francis Ford Coppola for Louis Vuitton Journey in their Core Values campaign...

Did you miss her comments on her experience with Annie Leibovitz?

So beautiful. Cool that the Louis Vuitton Neverfull GM at her feet has a nice little patina.

Anyway, I'll be back in a bit with more...

Sofia on her Louis Vuitton Journeys spot

Well, I guess this confirms the rumor.

The Times Online Fashion Department asked Sophia why she agreed to do the Annie Leobovitz X Louis Vuitton Core Values- Journeys ad spot with her father Francis Ford Coppola:

I liked the ad Annie shot with Keith Richards. It was flattering to be asked. Plus I've known Marc Jacobs since I was 18. We had mutual friends and started hanging out together. I remember asking my mom to take me to see Perry Ellis when he was designing there. I still have a box of clothes from that grunge collection somewhere. It's great to work with Annie - she did a good portfolio on the set of Marie Antoinette. She just selects one picture and then shows it to you. But I think that's good. My dad and I were both like, yeah, whatever you want, this is your shoot. On your own set you want it exactly your own way, but we can get with someone else's vision too.

and:

Obviously I love Marc Jacobs and Acne jeans which I wear all the time. Today I'm wearing a little knitted dress from See by Chloé, flat wedges from Louboutin. Really I should be wearing Vuitton, but I'm actually not that into status, although I have a little LV duffle bag that I travel with.
