i have just found out new info on the upcoming Spring/Summer 2009 collection....
a fellow blogger - freshmess - has been wondering about this lapel pin:
im pleased to inform him that its actually in the shape of a blazer or suit jacket seen from the side or hanging from a hook. there's also a possibility that these would be sold separately.
i was also stumped about these two bags:
at first i thought they were made of Taiga, but its actually a new Utah leather colour: petrol!
i've been wishing for navy blue Taiga, but i think blue Utah would be just as good.
and i was right about the beige suede Papillon shaped duffle bag:
this and the blue Siwa leather version on the right will be their Spring '09 Pre Collection. simply called "Sac Sport", these are based on the discontinued Sac Polochon and are due to arrive around mid December or early January. the suede would retail for AU$3970 while the Siwa would be AU$4200. *OUCH!* i had my sights set on the suede but with that sort of price point, i might have to rethink my selection.
with our Aussie $ at an all-time low, i might have to settle for the littlest bag on the show:
i can just imagine the larger all-leather totes and overnighters seen on the runway would be even more prohibitively exxy.
*le sigh*
for more photos including my original review of the men's LV S/S'09 show can be seen HERE and if you like to read more about Siwa leather, click HERE.
i was thinking around AU$2300-ish since its suede and not calfskin. but i guess they're just keeping to the $1000 increments every season they've been doing for the past few years now.
