Louis Vuitton Spring Summer 2013

Posted on October 4, 2012 by Alexandra

It was close to impossible to do a show worse than Louis Vuitton‘s fall winter 2012 disaster, so it comes as no surprise that this was a vast improvement. But I am still convinced that 99.9999999% of Louis Vuitton’s business is NOT clothing. While there were a few nice pieces here, it does not live up to the reputation of this amazing brand and is nothing to get excited about (unless you are doing checkerboard editorial shoots for an SS13 magazine issue.) But I must congratulate Marc Jacobs on his runway format. Note to Chanel, Armani, and Dolce & Gabbana, if you insist on putting 60+ looks down your catwalk, send them down two at a time. It is more efficient and pleasant for all.

I love…

cute little check outfits.

a bold, pretty print.

I loathe…

overdoing an idea. We’ve now seen over 30 little checked outfits, I am over this.

sheer checks. Nipple and white underwear are for the bedroom.

    What a ‘surprise’ – Jacobs did linear graphics for his own label and did square graphics for Louis Vuitton. I actually think the ones for his label are far better and I believe he is actually using the Vuitton platform to promote his own label. I am not sure why he’s doing that since they both are under LVMH.
