Who Wears it Better? Rihanna or Trina’s Monogramouflage Speedy

Friday, June 27th, 2008

Louis Vuitton Monogramouflage Rihanna Trina

Hmmm... well, we've got Trina on the left at the BET Awards on the 24th or Rihanna at Da Silvano in the West Village last Friday?

Dang it, I mean... you know how I have a hard time with this- I really don't want to be mean.  And, well, Trina's a cute girl and is it really fair to put her next to Rihanna in black leather (or is it latex?) that makes her legs go on, like foreverrrrr?

Rihanna's just looking so amazing- and the Louis Vuitton Monogramouflage really stands out on her black from top to toe outfit.

I actually like Trina's dress (although I'd wear it a few inches longer) and she looks great.  Can I really blame the poor girl for being excited to get her new Monogramouflage bag out there?  But, I'm going with Rihanna on this one...  Camo's just not working for me with the yellow.

What do you think?

Louis Vuitton Monogramouflage Keepall
(Louis Vuitton Monogramouflage Keepall 55 $1930)

Yep, the long awaited Louis Vuitton X Marc Jacobs X Takashi Murakami X Monogram X Camouflage mashup has arrived.

Louis Vuitton Monogramouflage lauched at the Brooklyn Museum of Art Preview Party Friday night.  If you didn't get one Sunday, you'll have to wait till Wednesday, as the museum is closed Monday and Tuesday.

Unless of course you want to pay twice up to twice retail on eBay.

Patience is a virtue... they'll be available at a Boutique near you for the masses June 15.

Louis Vuitton inspired Bape Nintendo DS

Sunday, April 20th, 2008

Bape Nintendo DS Louis Vuitton

Don't let my kids see this one.  They'll just see the cute little monkeys (baby Milo specifically) and not the fact that although may retail for $165, it's sold out. So good luck catching one for anywhere near that price. The only one available right now on eBay is selling for $550!

Wonder what Louis Vuitton thinks of the inspiration? I know they didn't like the Burlington Coat Factory Murakami inspired bags.

Maybe since Nigo (Bathing Ape founder) collaborated with Pharrell Williams on the Louis Vuitton Millionaires Sunnies- AND since Louis Vuitton's new Monogramouflage is clearly "inspired by" Bape Camouflage... AND since Nigo is tight with Takashi Murakami and Kanye West... AND finally, since the DS isn't a purse- Louis Vuitton will look the other way.

Louis Vuitton Monogramouflage Speedy anyone?

 Louis Vuitton Coated Canvas Monogramouflage

OK, so mean to say that... I don't have the picture of a Louis Vuitton Murakami Monogramouflage Speedy- yet.  But can't you just imagine it in the coated canvas Monogramouflage above?  Click here for the close-up.

I added it to my "Louis Vuitton Monogramouflage, Up Close and Personal" post below if you want to see all three canvases.

Louis Vuitton’s Monogramouflage: What you need to know.

Wednesday, March 12th, 2008


(Takashi Murakami's DOB Camouflage 2000)

Who knows what the heck Murakami's new Monogram Camouflage or Monogramouflage or Monouflage or Monoflage (I've seen it spelled all three ways!) is going to look like. The picture above is a Murakami Camo- but his Louis Vuitton collaboration will be a camo line in Monogram- so we'll just have to see. All we can be sure of right now is that it's going to be hot!

Here's what you need to know:

  1. The @Murakami Exhibit that I've blogged about ad nauseum will open to the public at the Brooklyn Museum on April 5
  2. Louis Vuitton will again "open shop" there.
  3. There will be multicolor monogram handbags and small leather goods
  4. There will be limited edition art canvasses also for sale that feature the new "Monogramouflage" design
  5. At the museum, they will be previewing this new Louis Vuitton collection the night of the April 3 Gala
  6. Murakami also promised, "I will be introducing new characters"
  7. The line will then launch at the Brooklyn store beginning June 1
  8. This line will be sold at a select number of Louis Vuitton boutiques worldwide starting June 15
  9. At the Gala, in addition to a performance by Kanye West, there will be a special performance in an effort to raise awareness of the international problem of counterfeits...

Very interesting indeed and wouldn't miss it!
