First off, they’re always going on about “iconic Monogram motif” and “Maison’s celebrated spirit of travel.” Okay, cool. Marketing speak. But honestly, the Monogram is pretty recognizable. My grandma has a beat-up old LV bag and, yeah, you know it’s LV, even if it’s looking kinda sad these days.
Then there’s the whole “small leather goods” thing. Pocket organizers, wallets, card holders, the works. They’re talking “elegance and efficiency.” I guess a fancy wallet *is* more elegant than my current, crumbling one held together with a rubber band, lol. And efficiency? Maybe if you’re super organized, but I’d probably still end up with receipts overflowing.
And the *price*! Whew. You’re paying for the name, let’s be real. They say “signature handbags and essential small leather goods blend timeless elegance with innovative design,” blah blah blah. Look, I’m not saying they’re not well-made (presumably, for that price they *should* be!), but are they *that* much better than, say, a nice wallet from Coach or something? I dunno. Debatable.
They also keep mentioning “newest models in signature canvas or supple leather.” Supple leather sounds nice, I gotta admit. My current wallet feels like cardboard. But “reimagined icons”? Are we just recycling old designs and charging more? Hmmm.
And “Embellished with emblematic motifs and refined accents, Louis Vuitton’s latest small leather goods creations embody the Maison’s audacious spirit.” Audacious spirit? You’re selling wallets, not conquering the world! Seriously, sometimes the marketing just goes a little overboard.
