STEVEN SPROUSE FOR LOUIS VUITTON

WEDNESDAY
PART 2


LOUIS VUITTON HONORS
STEVEN SPROUSE

First off, this man is not Marc Jacobs...well the the original that I knew and loved that had long hair, geeky glasses and was just perfectly chubby. You know the one that would have never posed nude let alone do any interviews (Which I think added to his mysteriousness). Now nothing is left to the imagination. (Picture Harper's Bazzar)

Anyway let's get to the point, Sprouse was a fashion designer and artist and the designer of the Louis Vuitton graffiti bag. Unfortunately he passed away in 2004 at age 50.

Jacobs on Sprouse: "He was using all this stuff that was so costly, really beautiful materials, and he was doing it all so beautifully. There are so many people who try to affect a street style, but it doesn’t have the integrity. Stephen’s work was so stylistic, and it had street cred. You can’t calculate that. You have it or you don’t, and Stephen did."

This collection is in limited release:

HA! You know...I mean, with that Spongebob tattoo I don't know what to think about what's going on in his head. But whatever it is, it's still churning out great stuff.

As I said, I've got my eye on the little green dress. But agree with you on his exhibitionism problem. It's just the latest addiction for a guy with an addictive personality.
