    I love a good de-influencing video! 👏👏👏 I actually agree with many of your points, Mary! Even as someone who enjoys LV and new releases, I found the leaks and massive amounts of content to be completely overwhelming and way too intense. I also stopped watching content about this collection for the same reason. (Except I did want to hear your critical take on this collection!😄)
    While I enjoy the multicolor print, I think it was a huge missed opportunity for LV. They could have done WAY more with these designs. Remember the exclusive VIP pumpkin-shaped bag from the Kusama release? Why didn’t they do anything like that with Murakami??
    My major disappointment is how badly LV is handling this release. There’s next to no marketing (so far), and the massive leaks before the announcement put CAs in a terrible position, causing so many issues between customers and CAs. They also invited top spenders to preorder, then had NO stock when those people tried to preorder. 💀 It’s been a mess and frankly an embarrassment for LV.

      @@LulaWestLuxe thank you for sharing your thoughts Lula (and for choosing to watch my take 🥰)! You know how much I admire the work you put into your new release videos - I just wish LV would give you more creative output to work with 😁 (then possibly I would enjoy to talk about it myself again aswell).
      I didn’t even cover the whole concept of artificial scarcity, preorders and VIP clients in this video - but definitely it make me dislike that drop even more!

      The way LV handled this release has completely turned me off. I planned on getting at least one piece but at this point I’ll just save my money. I already have the white Alma from the previous release. We can all agree this upcoming release was done poorly.

    I think that anyone who isn't a V.VIC is annoyed bc their pre-orders got canceled. Imagine how much interest LV earns when they "sell" these items, hold the money, and then cancel and give a refund. they certainly don't return that interest income they earned on their clients held money! I wasn't into this drop bc it was either not different/new enough, or different in a way I didn't like. It was an automatic pass for me.

    I have a big collection of the original and this new drop is majorly disappointing, they pretty much put the Murakami print on their current silhouettes and nothing original or cool😕 I have done some videos about it, I’m only interested in like the perfume, bracelets, not many of the handbags.

    I had the possibility to pre order it in the US, and I declined. There’s nothing in that collection that speaks to me anymore. I’m over it, it’s not my style whatsoever, I wouldn’t know what to do with it. I’m sure they will milk the cow and just produce more pieces later on. Knowing how LV works, they will want their $$$$. They are machine made, they can produce more! I’m so surprised that so many UA-camrs are losing their mind around it, it’s so juvenile.

    I do like the Multi-Colour print. I was sorely tempted by the black Toiletry 26, but I recovered. The new version has silver hardware and I like gold with the Murikami and it costs too much for what it is anyway. For a comparatively small amount extra I could get an original Speedy and I know which i would prefer. Thank you for the video! PS: The new Speedy will surely be lighter because it does not have the metal corners.

    I'm annoyed with all things with vachetta since I would ruin it instantly. Dont want to pay full price. But I think the Murakami lack creativity and courage. They could example make a speedy in bold colour and print on, but no it is the regular brown and black and white. I am waiting for the cherry blossom but from the sneak peak it doesn't seem like there would be a fun nice speedy....so I'm not impressed. Bought a scarf I'm considering returning for a bag charm but it depends. I actually like Murakami art and found the scarf to be wearable art.

      Why do you feel so offended by my opinion?
      I know a lot about the original y2k drop and already didn’t like the design back then - now it’s back at a higher price point. Where is the creativity, where is the innovation?
      As mentioned in this video aswell, even the original multicolor items back then had quality issues with the print chipping and the red interior bleeding onto the white canvas. So when quality of those bags was already not the best back then, what do you expect today, when the quality at LV overall went down so much?
