Design masters from different fields such as fashion, footwear, architecture, art and industrial design have reinterpreted the Monogram mark with their own design aesthetics and characteristics, inheriting the classics while subverting the creative outlook.
Fashion king Karl Lagerfeld designed a complete set of boxing gloves and bags; the avant-garde Rei Kawakubo dug out three parts of the Monogram bag to bring out her signature deconstruction; the king of red-soled shoes Christian Louboutin adorned his Favorite red and rivets; architect Frank Gehry continued the autumn and winter window display style he designed for Louis Vuitton, creating a curved, twisted square bag; artist Cindy Sherman designed shoulder bags and suitcases with multiple drawers inside.
