Louis Vuitton Resort 2010

We can see that Marc Jacobs extracted influences from his French coquettes influences seen on the Louis Vuitton fall runway and produced his Resort 2010 collection for the house. But summered things up a notch. The collection features khaki safari jackets worn with both trousers or shorts, cocktail dresses worn with tuxedo jackets, the violet three quarter sleeved jacket paired with the black mini was to die for! The shoes were exquisite, seen in open-toe platform slouch high heeled boots or pumps. I'm just not too crazy about the bags which were seen in denim with traditional LV print in golden.

The Season Shoe; Louis Vuitton "Spicy" Heels

We definitly can point out the must-have item this season and the IT shoe all at once, meet The Spicy, from the Louis Vuitton S/S 2009 collection. So move over YSL tribute two pumps! God I couldn't bare seeing them on anyone else!
This latest home-made creation at Louis Vuitton has already been seen all over fashion editors, fashionistas and celebrities alike. From Madonna to Heidi Klum and, of course, Victoria Beckham.
The Spicy retails at over 2k, a whopping price of $2,200 to be exact.
Katie Grand, editor of Love magazine and stylist for Louis Vuitton talks about the shoe's creation, mentioning:
“Its birth was at about three in the morning, with Marc [Jacobs] cutting up bits of snake, leather, leopard and ribbon, and the design team making masks to put on the front. Nearly every pair in the show was unique, which I think people also like.”
And that element of uniqueness definitly contributes to the Spicy turning out to be such a coveted shoe.

PFW: Louis Vuitton Fall/Winter 2009

Marc Jacobs at Louis Vuitton definitly closed Paris Fashion Week with something to remember. This season presented a large collection and definitely ignoring the global economic recession. He did what he does best and gave it his all. Backstage he stated:
“Yes, there’s a crisis, but one can carry on and contribute to beauty and optimism and gorgeousness. I have a practical mind — cut the party and celebrities [a reference to his New York approach], but you can’t sacrifice the beauty of the clothes.”

Marc Jacobs gave us ruffles, bows, Playboy bunny ears, pom-poms and lot of ruching.
There was a disco-punk prom theme with lots of shoulders and puffy skirts, which created lots of volume, as did the multi-coloured layered skirts. The collection features mini tulip skirts, delicate lace blouses, knit cardigans, bubble skirts, bejeweled leggings and beautiful black tailored skirt suits. One dress, in midnight blue, had a sheer black lace bodice, capelet and overlay, side shirring, pink peplum and a bow on each hip.
The collection's colour pallet was fantastic, including tones of coral, electric blue, fuchsia, crimson red and bright yellow, jade, and glossy blacks.
The accessories when talking about Louis Vuitton speak for themselves, as you would expect, they were all lustful. Bags and clutches were seen throughout the collection, some ruffled or with sequined monogram. Shoes were high and definitely elaborately constructed, seen as a pump and thigh high version, which were really big this season.
