History of the Louis Vuitton Monogramouflage 'Camo' Speedy

In 2008, Japanese Pop artist Takashi Murakami and Marc Jacobs reinvented the classic monogram canvas again, this time using a camouflage motif.

The elegance of traditional Louis Vuitton print and boldness of the camouflage colors are brought together to create a very unique bag.

This green doctor bag was born to be a work of art. It was exclusively released for the Brooklyn Museum / Contemporary Art Museum LA Murakami Exhibition in 2008 and was only available for purchase for a couple of weeks.

The traditional brown Monogram background was replaced with a camouflage pattern. The bag has black piping with black side straps in jute canvas, making this Speedy look like a small cute Keepall.

One special feature of the Monogramouflage Speedy, which is often referred to as the 'camo speedy' or a 'military speedy' is the unique luggage tag. Generally, the only model that comes with the tag is the Keepall, but the limited editions exist to be special. Therefore, this purse features a unique tag that states the artist's name.

The exquisite tag says 'Monogramouflage, Edition limitée, Takashi Murakami, Louis Vuitton' which makes you feel so good because this piece is very special in the Speedy line! In addition, the French luxury brand doesn't often release green handbags, so this is truly an exception.
