it's time for me to feature another bag from my collection. this month, i present to you Viktor:
This is from the Taiga collection of men's bags and accessories. Viktor has a special spot in my heart beacuse it is the very first bag i really lusted over. Originally availabe in Epicea (evergreen), Acajou ("cashew" ~ burgundy) and Ardoise (slate grey/black) colours, the Taiga collection is LV's first ever collection dedicated entirely to men. Back in the days when all i wore were black and silver metal (the height of Tom Ford's aesthetic reign), the Taiga Viktor in Ardoise was just the perfect bag for me. The subtle cross-grained calfskin leather is complimented by the brushed palladium hardware that makes these bags quite understated but still oozing class and sophistication. This particualr model has a distictive and unusual elastic band closure also seen on his Monogram Abbesses and Damier Bastille cousins. It sports an adjustable shoulder strap that goes right around 3/4 of the bag, a zipper back pocket, 2 open pockets under the flap and another zip pocket inside. Dimensions: 13" L x 11" H x 4" W. RRP: AU$1680.00.
