Jacobs, Sprouse's, and Vuitton's OH MY


Once in a while I get really excited about mainstream luxury designers. According to WWD Marc Jacobs and Louis Vuitton are paying homage to Stephen Sprouse.To show their admiration for the late designer and artist, next month, Jacobs, Vuitton’s creative director, is using his hit 2001 collaboration with Sprouse for a new, limited edition collection of accessories and ready-to-wear. Jacobs even doffed his duds again, posing in the nude painted in Sprouse’s graffiti for Harper’s Bazaar’s January issue. I'll report further on this collaboration as soon as my issue is received. I'm really excited about this collection. Jacobs says, “It almost becomes a classic, like a Chanel jacket, or a smoking,”(FYI "Le Smoking" :an iconic suit popularized by Yves Saint Laurent ) Collections like these can make a girl max out her credit cards, but it's absolutely worth it.
