First we saw Pharell, Louis Vuitton’s new artistic director, racing around Paris toting an X-Large croc speedy. Then, with everyone watching his big debut collection, all the girls and boys had one - an army of speedys down the runway. The signature carry-all is back!
Look. It’s big enough to live in, covered in the LV monogram. And yet, there are bags and there are bags – bags that outlive their original designers, bags with impact, bags that are undeniable, bags canonically opulent, ostentatious and honestly, hot. Bags that you can toss on the floor or dress up in candy colors (think Lindsay Lohan clutching one) or Murakami cherry blossoms or stripping it down to the skeleton like Virgil did and they’ll still be recognizable. Call it the end of the tiny bag, or call it the return of the Speedy. -Nicolaia Rips
