The Petite Malle Bag by Louis Vuitton gives an alternative look to the classic travel tote. Seen by many as an outdated form of lugging one's belongings across the globe, the trunk has been infused with a hint of haute couture by this fashion powerhouse.
The bag is part of Nicholas Ghesquière’s first collection in conjunction with the Louis Vuitton brand, which was first showcased at Paris Fashion Week running from February 25th to March 5th, 2014. While some bags donned the classic Louis Vuitton all-over branding design, others conveyed a more minimalist aesthetic with a metallic sheen or two-toned color-blocking motif. Regardless of coloration, the Petite Malle Bag offers a fashion-forward way to carry one's belongings with some vintage vehemence.
