A bit of history
The history of Louis Vuitton shawls began long before their popularity. Namely, in 1854, when a fashion house was founded. As a teenager, Louis got into assistants to the master, who was engaged in the manufacture of chests. There was no understanding of the suitcase then, and Louis actually became their founder, having come up with several options for their execution. He was the first to come up with flat suitcases that easily opened on the side and met all the requirements of baggage transportation.
The popularity of his products was constantly growing, and coincided with the development of rail and sea passenger traffic. It should be noted that even now many people associate luggage bags and suitcases with this brand. Today, the Louis Vuitton brand represents shoes, clothes and, of course, accessories. The most famous of them is the Louis Vuitton stoles. All over the world they are considered the most stylish and sought-after accessory, not only among women.
To create and design collections, the most talented designers and artists are invited to the company, one of which is Stephen Sprouza and Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama. The brand’s art director is Marc Jacobs, who attracts new creative designers from around the world to create even more successful things in the fashion world.
Models
Today, fashion house designers offer a lot of colors and patterns for all seasons of the year. Starting from light silk scarves to warm winter scarves, the latter are presented in 10 models, each of which offers a wide range of colors.
By the way, one of these models (gray scarf) has a consonant name with our northern capital and is called St Petersbourg.
Some models of scarves are complemented by fringe or fur, or are completely made of it. For example, FOXY and V CHAIN are fox products decorated with stylish jewelry.Summer silk scarves, the size of which is 70x70 centimeters, are distinguished by bright prints and rich colors. Most models adorn roses or chains.
However, designers are expanding the boundaries and in addition to interesting ornaments, they offer canvas straps with metal elements.
But the main and popular models are still Monogram Denim Shawl and Monogram Shawl. They have the same size 150x150 centimeters and include silk and wool. The first option is proposed in a palette of 12 colors. The second - from 28. Basically, all products are made of cashmere, wool, silk, some added polyamide. All fabrics for the production of clothing and accessories are made in Italy, using complex and expensive technologies, which distinguishes this brand from many others.
Color
Despite the wide color palette of scarves, the undisputed leaders are shades of purple and lilac, they emphasize the femininity of the image. Cappuccino - adds chic and aristocracy to the image. White cloud - emphasizes the tenderness of owners of branded scarves. California or pink contrasting, for example, with jeans and adding brightness to the image. It is these colors that are most popular among fashionistas.
Due place should be given to numerous prints, among which the recognizable classic with the LV logo. But design decisions are not limited to cute female colors. Recent trends show that men's colors - brown, gray, navy - have become especially popular in women's wardrobe.
An integral element of Louis Vuitton collections from season to season is the leopard print, it was he who became one of the first in the production of accessories for this brand, and still does not give up his positions. Designers offer it both in the classic color scheme, and in unusual readings - purple, gray, red.
How to distinguish from a fake?
The first thing to understand when choosing this accessory is that things of this level are not sold in multi-brand stores. Louis Vuitton does not arrange sales and the entire marriage is disposed of. This is an indicator of quality and price, respectively.
Today on the network you can see many ads for the sale of famous scarves. But no matter how convincing the sellers are, most of the goods are fakes. A true and high-quality scarf can only be bought at boutiques and on the Louis Vuitton official website. But there are sites where they offer to buy copies of this brand, the price for them is correspondingly lower, but this will not affect the quality in any way. All copies of scarves are made of the same high-quality material as the original and to the smallest detail repeat their design.
If you still decide to replenish your wardrobe with such an accessory as a Louis Vuitton handkerchief, then the first thing you need to pay attention to when choosing a product is the presence of a logo and the shape of its letter “O”. The original is always round, on a fake it will be oval. It is also worth paying attention to the accuracy of the three-pointed star and the four-leafed flower. Fake manufacturers often simply swap letters or change the logo to a consonant one, and with the accepted one - the star and flower are changed to visually similar ornaments.
Another important point when choosing a product is packaging. The original has a brown cardboard box, an envelope, anther, and, of course, a certificate. Attention deserves a tag. Original products are made only in France.
How to tie?
Due to their sizes and different designs, Louis Vuitton shawls and stoles can be worn as imagination allows. Many stylists recommend other uses of this accessory. It will look original on a bag, like a headband or woven into a hairstyle. And the most daring fashionistas can tie it on the arm in the form of a bracelet, twisting it with a plait and wrapping it several times around the wrist. Another original option would be to wear a scarf instead of a belt on jeans.
If you choose Louis Vuitton warm scarves and stoles for your look, you can look stylish in the cold season.. In many glossy magazines you can see examples of knitting a scarf as a man. You can wrap it around the neck and leave loose ends, fold in half and insert the edges into the resulting loop, or tie it up like a scarf.
In winter, a classic stole will be worn as a headdress, giving it the shape of a turban or as a regular shawl. It is worth noting that such an accessory will look very advantageous with fur products.
How to wear?
Such a wardrobe item as a shawl from Louis Vuitton will be beneficially combined with any image and style. One of the best combinations, skinny jeans and a stylish sweater.
If you prefer a sporty and comfortable style for a casual look, you can safely add a leopard scarf to sneakers and jeans.
The size of the accessory allows you to wear it as an independent element. For example, a lightweight summer scarf can be tied like a top bandeau, which will give originality to the image. Stylists advise to wear warm stoles as a shawl or wrap their shoulders as imagination allows.
You should not abuse such accessories as a brooch, otherwise the whole entourage created by the stole will recede into the background. Inspired by photos of stars and the quality of products, you can give free rein to imagination.
Even if the choice fell on the male color of the scarf, it fits perfectly in tandem with heavy boots with solid soles, a long coat and a gray hat. For lovers of black, classic models and colors will come to help create the bow. They emphasize the severity of the outfit and add elegance.
Summing up, we can say that this accessory is universal for both men and women, it is able to add luxury to any look. Whatever you wear, jeans or an expensive costume, this thing will complement your image and emphasize a sense of style and status.
