i've never been this excited about a movie since the release of "The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou". "The Darjeeling Ltd." is director Wes Anderson's latest movie. he is by far my utmost favourite movie director. he also wrote and directed "The Royal Tenenbaums" and produced "The Squid and the Whale". these two and "The Life Aquatic" are three of my all-time favourite movies. i particularly love the quirky, retroesque, Wallpaper*-magazine-the-Tyler-Brulee-years look of his films. but what makes "Darjeeling" even more exciting (well, to me anyway) is the participation of a special cutom-made set of Louis Vuitton luggage and leather goods. Marc Jacobs - a good friend of Mr Anderson - specially designed a unique set of luggage in what appears to be Nomade leather hand painted with rather naïve drawings of jungle animals by Anderon's brother Eric. here is a photo of the luggage:
here they are in a still shot from the movie:
these one-off luggages are currently on display at the LV flagship store in New York and will be later auctioned off for charity.
more information about the movie can be found HERE
i absolutely can't wait!!!! Comments

rd1880 > i'd LOVE to own that Nil reporter bag on Jason Schwartzman. "9" is my favourite number. but it'll be too expensive i would think.

as i was browsing eBay last night, a particular auction stood out to me like never before. an eBay seller has taken photos from my blog to use for their auction!
check out the eBay auction HERE
here is my original entry: Feature Bag #9
i immediately asked them to take the photos out because
a) they're mine;
b) my bag is definitely NOT for sale
c) do we even know if there is a bag up for sale?
i was astounded with the nerve of the seller's reply asking me to provide the blog address to prove that it is indeed I who requested it. is that so you can pilfer some more in case prospective buyers wanted more detailed photos?
if you're reading this, yes it's ME and i want those photos taken out or i'll do all i can to have you banned from eBay for good.
good day.

You might wanna let the bidders know that those aren't the pictures from the auction. It's already up to more than 2k.

OH DUCK! how horrible! and just last month i was praising that same bag. i wonder if his is a fake. if its real the price is reasonable unlike the last seller that tried ripping me off. but i still find that i would prefer the mocha color. :( i called 2 weeks ago 866 vuitton and at first they said they didnt. by mistake last week i pressed redail and it dialed 866 vuitton. I curiously asked about the sacoche and they had the mm in a store some where in the states. but only one in this color. :/ i hope it doesnt sell out before i finish raising the money. im not that far. anyway, do you consider i should still get it? do you find yourself using it alot? i bought an abbesses thinking i was going to use it alot, but i havent. what do you think i should do?
please help.
ps. im addicted to TPF! lol
take care dear.
