this is the first ever photo of the highly anticipated re-issue of the LV Monogram Graffiti by Stephen Sprouse.
that's right kids, they glow in the dark. it would be interesting to see how they look like in daylight. im seriously loving the orange Keepall. i think orange will match real well with the brown Monogram canvas. plus it will blend the vachetta leather handles and trims when they eventually attain that famous patina. its definitely on top of my list for Spring 2009. could those high-tops be part of the Kanye West collaboration?
in the past few days more info about this line have emerged. i can now tell you that the reason behind the re-issue is that there will be a major retrospective of Stepehen Sprouse's work at the Deitch Gallery in New York. the new Neon Graffiti collection will be released worldwide when the show opens on 9 December 2008. more info about this exhibit can be found here: Rock on Mars.
the Stephen Sprouse love fest continues with the publication of a book by Roger and Mauricio Padilha. a special edition Louis Vuitton cover will also be released on the same day as the opening. while the regular print version (below) will come out on 13 January 2009.

i can also now tell you that the neon Graffiti collection will comprise a Keepall 50, Speedy 30, Boite Chapeau and a selection of hard-sided suitcases just like in the original 2001 edition. plus the additon of a Neverfull MM. SLGs (small leather goods) are still unconfirmed, but are prob also included. it will come in orange, pink and green plus there's also a mention that the print will come in two sizes: a regular and a smaller print version which instantly doubles the selection. so far, the Monogram Rose collection will include a Speedy, Mini Pochette Accessoires and a cashemere scarf in the same style as the hugely popular Leopard and Monogramouflage stoles. other items in this capsule collection include "t-shirts and dresses in matte jersey, sunglasses, a towel, a sweatband and bracelets". but probably the hottest piece of them all is a one-off customized Graffiti skateboard and matching fitted hard case which is to be auctioned off. be sure to expect a Pharrell vs. Kanye battle for that special top deck.
i never really been excited about fluoro until now.
