A lot of people have e-mailed me inquiring about the 17 color combos of
Louis Vuitton's
Mon Monogram service. Thankfully,
NicoleLV has provided us with a snap shot of the color chart that some stores use. Click pic to enlarge.
I know, it's kinda archaic but they also have a swatch sampler that you can flip through. Here's Juana Manahan at Louis Vuitton, Manila perusing the said sampler. Photo from
stylebible.ph.
Lastly, software developed for
Louis Vuitton is used to capture a visual simulation of what your future Mon Monogram would
LVook like. This is the final step wherein a print out of your order would come from. I would suggest that you decide on a color scheme before heading down to one of a hundred Flagship Stores worldwide that offer this service. With all the combinations of colors, placement, fonts, two initials or three, it can get a tad bit overwhelming. My head ached by the time I walked out of the 5th Avenue store. Also, I was irritated that a few months after, the counterfeiters decided that my Mon Monogram was a limited edition piece and decided to make copies.
AAAAAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH! Click

But the experience was well worth it. Here's mine today as I run off to the gym.
Go Terps!!! LVoe it!!!

Yay for Terps! I just graduated from there this past December, are you an alum as well??
ReplyDeleteCongratz! I'm not an alum but my partner is and I like to wear his shirts for the gym. Thanks for visiting!
ReplyDeletedo you have to pay extra for your initials to get stamp? can you tell me how much? thanks
ReplyDeleteYes. The Mon Monogram has a totally different price point which is approximately 30% more of the core collection pieces. Thanks for visiting my blog!
ReplyDeleteis yours fake? i see fake mon monogram speedy's everywhere with the same colors and the same FB letters.
ReplyDeleteHahahaha, nope. I have the real F.B Monogram Speedy. They are my initials. I was one of the first that was invited by Louis Vuitton New York to have one made and when I posted it in my blog, the counterfeiters copied it even to the last detail. Here's my posting about it back in 2008: http://louisvuittonlover.blogspot.com/2008/10/my-mon-monogram-is-being-faked.html.
