Creativity doesn’t need to be a new idea; it can be an old concept but then altered to create new perspective. For example; the Louis Vuitton Crown Frame Bag from the Fall Winter 2018 Collection. This bag is inspired by the Maroquin City Bag from the 1930’s. This vintage Maroquin City Bag is displayed in the Museum of Asnières.

The Design

Not long ago we talked about the Trompe-L’Oeil, which has been implemented in the iconic bags of Louis Vuitton. In short, the Trompe-L’Oeil is a form of art that changes realistic designs into 3D illusion. In one of the Crown Frame Bag styles, there is a version that’s designed with this beautiful art.

There are multiple styles of the Crown Frame Bag. The Trompe-L’Oeil is my favorite one so far, however there is also a version that’s crafted with a motherboard style (you know, the motherboard of an computer).

We also expect more different exterior designs in the future and we also hope Louis Vuitton will create an iconic style like the Monogram or the Damier Canvas for the Crown Frame Bag. But anyways, while the exterior can be changed, the interior and the critical parts will remain the same. For example, the bag is built with a metallic frame closure, reminiscent of the Speedy Doctor Bag.

The bag is made with trapezoid shape as it comes with a top handle for hand carry and a long mortise leather strap for shoulder carry. It’s a beautiful city bag, just like the Maroquin City Bag. And what’s more, the unique front leather loop on the front can be used to attach small accessories like a charm or an extra mini bag. Or it can be used to hold gloves or scarves.

The Interior

The inside is made with a double flat pocket at the back and one large main compartment. It’s a useful city bag with sufficient spaces for all your daily essentials.
