Typically, for commercial sale, designers rework runway collections a bit, the main purpose of which is to create a public outcry. But not Virgil Abloh, creative director of Louis Vuitton's menswear. The items featuring surreal bunnies, dogs and flamingos, which first appeared in the animated film "The Adventures of Zoooom with Friends", which became the announcement of the brand's spring / summer show, have arrived in the boutique and online store in their original form.
If on bags, sneakers, hats and belts, LV Friends cartoon characters are present as prints and patches, which looks bright, but not eccentric, then jersey and some outerwear adorned full-size crocheted toys. This makes things look like art objects that are priced accordingly.
14 toys, stuck around the pullover as if it were Noah's ark, cost 615 thousand rubles. A hoodie made according to the same principle will cost a little less - 575 thousand rubles. Also in the collection there is a coat with a camel wool flamingo for 470 thousand rubles, a blazer with a plush dog for 410 thousand rubles. and a Keepall bag with a knitted banana man and a flower man for 420 thousand rubles.
