Louis Vuitton Don's
Nude Color
And can't forget shoes for all the Louis Vuitton Don Diva's
In recent interview with WWD, Mr. West gives a little insight into the inspiration behind the Louis Vuitton sneakers the world is waiting on......
WWD: What was your inspiration behind the sneaker collection?
K.W.: We started from the sole. We made it lighter weight and flexible, so you can bend it…. I was inspired by the movie “Dune” because, as you know, I love sci-fi…. The collection had all these jackets that were very padded. They looked like maybe they had hockey pads in the jacket, and there was one where the collar came up really high. I took that element and I put that on the back of the shoe. It’s like the opposite of the tongue. Usually you have the tongue at the front. [This is] like a tongue at the back.
WWD: How was it working with Marc Jacobs?
K.W.: He’s my favorite designer. I think he’s the most important designer in fashion right now, and he reminds me of how Jay-Z was in rap music when I came to Roc-A-Fella [Records]. Any time I can get around him and learn as much as possible is just a blessing.
