Introducing the Louis Vuitton Time Trunk Bags

The artistic take on Monogram Canvas contains trompe l’oeil particulars

For Fall 2018, Louis Vuitton has released a capsule collection of handbags named the Time Trunk line, which attributes trompe l’oeil trunk detailing more than the top rated of, amongst other issues, the brand’s classic monogram print. If that sounds oddly familiar, it is mainly because for Summer time 2018, Louis Vuitton released a capsule collection of handbags with illustrated trunk particulars more than, amongst other issues, the brand’s classic monogram. I did not like that group of bags so a lot, but fortunately, this a single is a lot improved. In some cases the second time is the charm.

When you examine these two collections, you see just how a lot a excellent notion is practically nothing without having strong execution. The Time Trunk collection requires a extra vintage strategy to the illustrations than the summer season collection did, which implies they are extra muted and much less cartoonish, with an general extra luxurious really feel. On the pieces that use monogram, the execution of the print is also a tiny distinct than on regular bags—it’s extra blurred and painterly, which tends to make it resemble the monogram canvas on the brand’s historical trunks. If monogram is not your issue, there are also bags that use distinct backgrounds, which are a tiny extra visually straightforward.

These bags are portion of the brand’s Fall 2018 collection, which is on-line and in boutiques now. The Time Trunk line also contains some silks and smaller accessories. Verify the bags out beneath.
