'Les Deux Plateaux,' a work by artist Daniel Buren, was Marc Jacobs' main source of inspiration for the Louis Vuitton spring 2013 collection. Check it out!
What was Marc Jacobs' source of inspiration for the latest Louis Vuitton spring 2013 collection? It seems that the starting point was 'Les Deux Plateaux,' a work by artist Daniel Buren consisting of 260 columns of three different heights arranged in a grid, which has been in Paris’ Palais Royal since 1986. "After the romance of the train and storytelling, this felt like something very powerful without telling a story. I was like, yeah, let's have a grid," the famous designer said. "For me, this show is about purity, about how something simple can be very comforting."
Models walk down the runway in pairs, flaunting beautiful 60s-inspired silhouettes. "I can't seem to avoid a reference when I design," Jacobs said after the show, "But it wasn't meant to be 60s. The beehive hair probably aided that". As for the legendary LV monogram? "I didn't want to do the LV monogram for once," said the designer, "so I used the LV Damier squares instead".
