I tried to use the things in Stephen’s vocabulary, and give the collection the shape, silhouette and styling that Stephen would have done when he was at the top of his game. It really is a complete homage, and a complete combination of what is louis vuitton, and what is this legendary icon, and then what are the icons and the lasting aesthetics that Stephen left in the fashion world.” – Marc Jacobs! 2009 is a year to memorialize the great American artist Stephen Sprouse in the House of Louis Vuitton. Marc Jacobs chose to revisit the two motifs which, for him, best represent the legacy of Stephen Sprouse at louis vuitton: the graffiti and the rose. After the huge success of the limited-edition Stephen Sprouse collection, Stephen Sprouse’s rose motif appears on the Hermes bag which was launched in new, eye-popping shades of glossy Monogram Vernis leather. The classical Alma MM in Monogram Vernis leather is revamped with the Roses pattern of the artist. The Louis Vuitton Alma MM Roses bag is discreetly embossed Monogram Vernis leather, textile lining, plain vernis leather trimmings. The rolex golden brass pieces and double brass pieces opening and padlock and removable key holder make the liquid-like appearance more elegant and delicate.
