have we discussed LV cherries?
Permalink Closed


What does everyone think about these?

Will it be dated like the Murakamis? Are they more classic? Will they be an interesting piece of LV history that will be fun to wear this season and the store for a few years and later resurrect?

What do you think?

Sorry couldn't find an image of the speedy!

Yuck. But I'm also not a huge LV fan.

I like all of them except for the first one.  I don't think they would become dated.  They are cute and I love cherries!  I think the first one would become dated looking though and I can't really explain why I think that one would but the others wouldn't.  I also think it looks weird to begin with with the LV's and cherries competing for attention, like just choose classic LV or the cherries.  JUST ONE!  It seems like the LV monogram is more muted in the last 3 and it looks better. 


Oh.  I also don't like the last one.  It wasn't there when I wrote my original post.  It just came out of nowhere.  Creepy...

I like the last one best and like AJ, don't like the first one at all.  I think these are much cuter than the Murakamis and also think they will be great vintage LV's in the future.  But I do have visions of horrid knock offs running amuck!!!

I don't know. I like cherries but I feel like they missed the boat with the whole rockabilly thing which came and went a few years ago. Marc Jacobs has been making all these attempts to hipsterize LV with the Sprouse graffiti and the original Murakami design so in that respect I think these are kind of fashion-backwards. Though I like this pattern better than most of the other bastardized LV logo designs.

I hate them. The only one that I even remotely like is the last one. And the faces on #1 freak me out.

I saw them in the window in San Francisco, & are much cuter in person, but I just can't get into them.

I don't like them and think I would look like a clown carrying one. I do think the knock offs will be hilarious. Will the cherries have frowny faces instead?

Ehh...I'm not a fan of Louis Vuitton (with the exception of a few Epi styles) so these don't do anything for me.

I am not a fan, but I think these can be cool/retro  after a few years.

I actually really like them (even thought I am not a huge fan of cherry prints) and if I had $$ to blow I'd buy one. I don't think they look good in the pictures but I saw them at the Louis store in the mall and like kealoha said, they're much cuter in person.

But I agree that there will probably be awful knock offs everywhere.

All of my aunts on my mother's side of the family (and my mom) have instilled in me a near undying love for all things LV. I love LV and I love my Speedy 25. In a few years, when I have some spare money I will probably buy my , a red leather epi Alma.


So I like LV Momogram well enough and I like the color red, but I say to this. I agree with missing the rockability boat with the cherries just coming out now. And yeah, there will be horrific knockoffs, but people who have taste will know the fakes from the real ones.


But what really kills me with these cherries, is that (just like those cherry blossoms), they have evil FACES!!!!! I mean, when I see these, I am seeing attack of the killer fruit? I do not think that's cute and I don't want to promote killer cherries in the least. They look like they want to kill everybody in sight. (Now you all think I'm psycho but whatever)
