Louis Vuitton Eclipse Speedy 28
November 2, 2009 0 Comments
My absolute favorite piece from the
Louis Vuitton Fall/Winter 2009 collection is the monogram Eclipse
Speedy 28. Yes, I said 28. In case you weren't already aware,
Vuitton created a new Speedy-size especially for this piece. Will
the 28 stick around for different collections, maybe monogram? That
is not know at this time.
This bag was released world-wide in
stores back in August. I decided last month I was in love with this
bag and needed to have it. Of course, I couldn't decide if I wanted
the noir or the gold version. After much contemplating, I figured
black would suit my wardrobe much better than the gold. I contacted
Louis Vuitton and the representative I spoke with informed me that
this bag - in black and gold - is entirely sold out in North
America.
I am really disappointed I waited
this long to try and track one down. There is one qualm I have with
this bag, however. Notice the circle-shaped hardware that holds the
handles - it's silver! Even if I were to purchase the black
version, the rest of the hardware is gold. I think this was a big
mistake on the design aspect.
What do you think of the Eclipse
Speedy 28? Do you own one? What's your favorite version? Is it
worth the $2,160 price tag?
