Bag Review: Louis Vuitton Black Epi Alma BB – Becca Luna

Why It’s An Investment: The “Infinity Dots” theme of the new Louis Vuitton x Yayoi Kusama collaboration gives the LVxYK Alma BB an upbeat arty look. Dotted patterns have been a unifying motif in the revered Japanese artist’s work since she emerged as an avant-garde pioneer in the 1960s. For this precious bag, dazzling white dots are printed on red Epi cowhide, accented with a charm shaped like a pumpkin – another of Kusama’s emblems.
