Louis Vuitton Launches Brand New Patches Bag Collection

It is precisely what the name implies

Louis Vuitton normally has a seasonal handbag output that dwarfs its competitors. That tends to make sense—not only is LV the world’s most significant luxury brand, but its heritage is completely in leather goods, whereas most premium designer brands began with clothes. Even with that it thoughts, it appears like Vuitton has released extra new lines in the final couple seasons than usual—we just caught up with the debut of the Time Trunk bags two weeks ago, and now the brand is at it once again, this time with the Louis Vuitton Patches Bags.

The Patches line is what it sounds like—the brand has remade some of its most well-known bags and compact leather goods with entertaining graphics meant to evoke the patches and stickers applied to travel bags and trunks of the previous. On an aesthetic level, the Patches bags are incredibly related to the My LV Planet Tour line, which enables shoppers to choose their personal patches and apply them to well-known monogram pieces for ladies or Damier Graphite travel gear for guys, resulting in a customized bag. With this line, the embellishments come pre-selected, and the cost point is slightly greater for causes that are not completely clear. In most situations, I’d anticipate a customized bag to be extra pricey, just simply because they have to be manufactured 1 at a time.

All of the Patches bags use a monogram base, and the line contains classic bags like the Neverfull Tote, Alma PM, Pochette Metis and Bandouliere Speedy. If Louis Vuitton is certainly carrying out extra 1-off seasonal lines, its not challenging to see why: The brand’s fans have a seemingly bottomless interest in new versions of monogram classics. Seasonal embellished releases are a terrific way to develop repeat purchasers for some of the brand’s most well-known types, and even even though this line just launched, numerous of the types are currently sold out on the web.
