Marc Jacobs and Louis Vuitton have launched a new line of Stephen Sprouse handbags showcasing the designers’ pop art/grafitti style.
Jacobs took two iconic Sprouse motifs - the graffiti and the rose - and interpreted them in Day-Glo shades of pink, green and orange over the Monogram print
“I tried to take what Stephen had done at Vuitton and then kind of flip it in my head, and make it Vuitton’s work for Stephen, not Stephen’s work for Vuitton,” Jacobs said. “I just felt it was a funny way to play with it, to pretend to be Sprouse for a bit, and use the work that he did, and then bring it back to the work that he did before I collaborated with him.”
