If you don’t know who Stephen Sprouse was, it’s about time you found out.
Think Louis Vuitton, Marc Jacobs, punk fashion of the 80′s and you’ll be on the right track.
Sprouse’s first collaboration with Louis Vuitton came in 2001 when Artistic Director Marc Jacobs invited him to refresh the Monogram canvas.
If he can be credited with anything at all, it should be for shaking up LV designs and making the brand fly and relevant.
He was so important to the leather goods maker that they’ve created two exceptional collections in his honor.
Enter the Marc Jacobs-designed pop collection, inspired by two of Sprouse’s emblematic motifs, the rose and graffiti.
According to the LVMH’s “The Magazine,” day-glo shades of pink, green and orange emblazon the limited series Monogram Roses and Monogram Graffiti lines.
The leather goods maker is also joining the New York Deitch Project gallery for the first retrospective of Sprouse’s work.
