Louis Vuitton Levels Up Everyday Bodega Flowers
Unveiled during Abloh’s final menswear collection.
From dog-shaped leather crossbody bags to character-inspired keychains, the accessories category of luxury goods is becoming increasingly abstract, yet fun. The latest offering from Louis Vuitton that furthers this conversation of elevated novelty is its flower bouquet.
Putting a luxury spin on your local bodega flowers, the piece from the French luxury house was first introduced in Virgil Abloh’s Fall/Winter 2022 fashion show. Occurring two months after this passing, the flower bouquet and accompanying show further illustrated the late creative’s expanded approach to design. Serving as a collector’s item, the unique piece includes multicolored leather and canvas flowers in shades of coral, royal purple, azure blue and more with LV’s signature monogram detailing.
Channeling the silhouette of wrapped newspaper, the artificial roses, baby’s-breath and tulips rest inside a single-handle carrying bag. The piece is crafted from Louis Vuitton’s classic brown monogram canvas with leather straps and antiqued gold-color hardware. Additionally, the bag includes a zipped pocket to aid in carrying everyday essentials.
Check out the gallery above for a look at the flower bouquet. Priced at $12,200 USD, visit Louis Vuitton’s website for more information on the collector’s item.
