I think you are the only luxury fashion youtuber who actually understands this art and can explain it to your viewers. Thank you! I bought two items from the first drop - a silk square and the yellow twist wallet on chain with black dots.
i like her use of dots and the crossover of naive art and tribal art. her colours are very primary and loud. it would be interesting to see an exhibit. each handbag is a work of art. they would really cash in if she signed them. imagine curating that in a museum some day. wow
No disrespect to kusama and her art - and I’ve read about her history and how she has been in a psychiatric unit since 1977. However, I still don’t like the collaboration. Her art doesn’t work well with Louis Vuitton. 🤷🏻♀️
Thanks Mel! Yes I definitely don’t think it’s many peoples cup of tea! I can’t say it’s my fav I don’t have FOMO luckily…except for maybe the scarves 😋
Great commentary on Kusama and what she's all about. Sometimes you need to go beyond face value. I'm so glad you rethought your original opinion. When I first saw her work in a museum, I was drawn in by the playfulness of the red dots.
Yayoi's signature style is currently adorning 400 objects in a collaboration with the French luxury fashion house-but it is not clear how involved she is.... Would love to see some more transparency from the company in regards to her financial and artistic business gains. She definitely deserves it all.
I think it’s great that you were willing to challenge your thinking about this collection. You actually taught me a thing or two about the artist that I didn’t know before which I really appreciate. This next drop is going to be far more interesting than the dotted items;especially that gorgeous Capucine.
I feel, her art really works better the sold empriente colors. I just notice, LV does these unique collabs. To be honest, I’m more interested with the scarf design on the speedy collection.
Thanks for another great video Jess! I appreciate all art and Kusama's art might have some message even though it does not speak to me personally. However, I think her art does not align well with LV brand equity. But again, I have been out of love with LV for few years. Perhaps, it will generate sales and it all that matters for marketing.
Jess, there's a great Yayoi Kusama exhibition at M+ museum in Hong Kong until April 23. It's worth the trip! :) If you come, I'd be happy to treat you at the M+ member's cafe for a lovely afternoon tea or refreshing drink. :)
You don't have to "change" your mind. your first video on this collection was your gut feelings about the collection. I don't think you should be forced to change your mind. we all see the collection and not everyone is going to like it and that's ok. She is a controversial character, and her art is not for everyone. When I saw the pumpkin tho, It reminded me of something you would like. The collection looks like some of the Loewe pieces you've been looking at. But I like your first impression about this Kusama collection. Art is subjective, it's ok not to like it.........
@@Jessiestyle , I have recently sold 10 of my never see day / moon light handbags and 1 was never used at all. I felt happier because my bank balance looked healthier. I’m going to buy silk scarf instead of a bag as well. Thank you Jessie.
I guess I am the only one who actually likes her "scary face" art. I dont see the scary part, I dont know to me it seems corky & silly yet unique. Im actually getting them, I guess I will scare people off when I wear my bag lol thank you talking about this, it was needed.
It's so easy to say oh a child could do that or I could do that... But do you? Like a man sold a hanging banana as art. And even though anyone can hang a banana not anyone can find people to understand a story; a point of view and pay thousands of dollars for it. So if anything to appreciate; at least it's their capacity to find people who believe them and believe in them. Wouldn't it be nice having people in your life who would say: do you. Have coffee, hang a banana, draw dots. I'll pay you because I appreciate your unique point of view, I appreciate your story, I appreciate you. So... Is it just a form of jealousy, (when we say: oh a child could do that) that we haven't found that many people in life who will support us commercially, business-wise, emotionally to be ourselves and tell our story with whatever resources we have or want? Whether those resources or the outputs are simple or skilled. Btw there is amazing beauty in simplicity as well. My point: it is wise to look for the beauty in everything and everyone; it makes our lives richer and more compassionate. It leads us away from jealousy and closer to love. I'm not saying you have to like it... That's humanity: we're different, we like different things. But appreciating others for who they are and not what they can do or contribute to "me" is really an amazing life changing thing. I appreciate you Jess. Do you. Go have your chats about your opinions... I'll watch. I'll comment whatever for the sake of the algorithm and I hope you blossom further. Do you... There are so many people out there who will appreciate the beauty to you being... You.
Great subject matter when mental health is involved. Beauty and art are in the eyes of the beholder. For the price I’d rather not buy into these artistic, colorful handbag pieces. Very fitting on a bandeau tho.
Aquarium merchandise... Germs and bacteria... You're so funny! Your remarks are the best things that I have enjoyed about this collection. I am Japanese but I don't like Kusama art at all. I prefer paintings by French artists like Fragonard and Monet. LV is a French brand, so I think they should promote more aspects of their French culture that everyone loves.
pumpkins make me happy! i gave away my knockoff kusama bag because i heard kusama said some horrible things. i do love her artwork, if she made an apology i might be ok with it. hopefully she has changed.
The fish is a fuku (fugu) fish that in japanese culture it symbolizes good luck. I love art and fashion, but these collab don't suit well. I am not disregarding or disrespecting what YK been through her life, but man, imagine carrying them expensive bag and explaining to everyone why the flower in your capucine have measles or what is that this --> 😱 meant. Mental disorders are no joke, but paying thousands of dollars for these bags. Who's the crazy one now?
I would have preferred owning a piece of the art and avoid the bag altogether. I really hate anything that looks childish. That is just a big pet peeve of my own. I do not mind a charm, but I like classic styles.
I am not a fan of her art, I feel that is very juvenile on top of a very mature lv monogram. This is not a look that I like, and I love art. I will also say I like neoclassical art, I skipped the impressionism completely. So, for me, this style would never speak to me. I would also find it hard to style these items with my wardrobe. I actively wear a ton of Disney merchandise, so I like juvenile and fun, I just don't like this collaboration. I appreciate the colors.
While I can appreciate her art and especially the colorful pumpkins, I cannot see myself carrying any of these bags. Some are cute but very busy and loud and some are just strange and off putting.
Hi Jessie! I'm so happy that you actually looked into Kusama's work and went out of your way to make a video about her! It's pretty rare for youtubers to read thought their comment, let alone actually engaging with them in this way but anyway. Apologies for my elitist-sounding criticism on your last video about the lv x yk drop but I really do believe that we can all benefit form art and/or fashion, so actually seeing you learn and engage with kusama's ideas is pretty interesting and exciting. Looking forward to your next videooo byebyeee˜˜˜! ∧,,,∧ ( ̳• · • ̳) / づ♡♡♡♡♡
As a classical femenist and with a strugglesome background i relate to Kusama. Despite hardship, unfair treatment and mockery Kusama managed to let her creativity flow out for the world to see. Yes she has said stupid things, so has Hamsun, so did might Coco Chanel by allegedly being spy for the nazi and all the horror of hate they did with race and discrimination. Still, all of these artist contributed to shape the world and i believe the world would become much more poor in culture if people cancel their contribution in art and litterature by ignoring, prohibit and shaming other people for appreciate just the pure art work. And if you look into your own heart, are you a flawless human being? Never said or done anything at all that is stupid, like ever ? Humans are capable of creating great art but might say or do stupid things.... complex and with flaws...
The eating flowers 🌺 !!!!!!! Savages!!!!!!!!!
I think you are the only luxury fashion youtuber who actually understands this art and can explain it to your viewers. Thank you! I bought two items from the first drop - a silk square and the yellow twist wallet on chain with black dots.
I love the pumpkins! 😍
Love this video so much, so much background and history. I absolutely love the pumpkin neverfull ❤️
It has a lot of cool details!
Thank you for this perspective Jess! I will look at her entire collection differently now💪🏻
Now this collection to me, is more art than the previous and I appreciate it.
Brilliant video Jessie. Thanks for this I had no idea of her background. X
Thanks lots for tuning in! 🥰
i like her use of dots and the crossover of naive art and tribal art. her colours are very primary and loud. it would be interesting to see an exhibit. each handbag is a work of art. they would really cash in if she signed them. imagine curating that in a museum some day. wow
It would look incredible if they did that!!!!
Well now you’ve got me wanting the flower bags! I love your take on her art
Appreciate your deep sincere analyses. Very refreshing.
🥰🥰
Anyone has a pic that shows the other side of the monogram Alma bb with drop 2???❤
Does anyone know how this type of bag with these motifs will wear and tear? Does the artwork fade off easily or within a few years???
No disrespect to kusama and her art - and I’ve read about her history and how she has been in a psychiatric unit since 1977. However, I still don’t like the collaboration. Her art doesn’t work well with Louis Vuitton. 🤷🏻♀️

@@Jessiestyle I agree, the charms and scarfs is a maybe 😅 but deffo no to the bags 😂
Love the pumpkin speedy. The collaboration has been a huge success I think and the previous one was also.
On another note. Do u mind sharing what eye makeup you are wearing? Love it!❤
I really like the Neverful with the pumpkins that are different colors.
Bacteria germs 😂😂😅😅😂😂
Yes I can see that!! 🦠
I love the yellow with the black dots ❤ wanted the Alma pm in leather not patient leather
Great commentary on Kusama and what she's all about. Sometimes you need to go beyond face value. I'm so glad you rethought your original opinion. When I first saw her work in a museum, I was drawn in by the playfulness of the red dots.
Oo I would love to see her art in real life!
Yayoi's signature style is currently adorning 400 objects in a collaboration with the French luxury fashion house-but it is not clear how involved she is....
Would love to see some more transparency from the company in regards to her financial and artistic business gains. She definitely deserves it all.
I like the overview of the entire LV collection and I have gained a greater appreciation for Kusama’s work, however I still don’t care for it.
I’ve always loved Kusama’s art. I’ll probably pick up a scarf since I’m bag happy at the moment.
Yes the scarves are my favs!!!! I’m defs tempted! Trying to convince myself to close my eyes
Even just a bandeau hehe
This drop is so much better than the boring last drop. If there’s a pumpkin wallet or other SLG, I’ll probably pick that up.
I like the artwork and I’m going to pick up a couple items ❤
Exciting!!!
Aquarium giftshop 😂🐬💙
😋
I don't like every piece, but there are pieces that I love. I like the men piece. It's different. I think the are is cute. Love the colors she uses.
Same!
I mainly like the silks!
I think it’s great that you were willing to challenge your thinking about this collection. You actually taught me a thing or two about the artist that I didn’t know before which I really appreciate.
This next drop is going to be far more interesting than the dotted items;especially that gorgeous Capucine.
yes the capucines are nice!
Like the mens black with blue pumpkin
I too think it’s juvenile. I also agree that they are hard to match.
I feel, her art really works better the sold empriente colors. I just notice, LV does these unique collabs. To be honest, I’m more interested with the scarf design on the speedy collection.
yes the designs do pop on the leather pieces!!
Haha this bag are awesome for people loves happy colours but not my type,I have neverfull but in very plain dameir that will make me happy now 😂
Tbh I think it's cute ..

I've done some research on Kusama and she is not someone i would personally support

you have a point! art is subjective
I like the pumpkins more than the dots. Neverfall bag looks good but I won’t be buying and I will probably regret my decision later.😂
I know I would regret buying a bag but I think if I buy a small silk that’s not so bad 😋
@@Jessiestyle , I have recently sold 10 of my never see day / moon light handbags and 1 was never used at all. I felt happier because my bank balance looked healthier. I’m going to buy silk scarf instead of a bag as well. Thank you Jessie.

I like the face pieces as well. I haven ‘t decided what I’m getting yet, but definitely something.
@@cherylclough4309 I'm thinking of getting the two neverfull, the face & pumpkin. The pumpkin speedy 20 is cute also.

HAHA indeed thanks Tracey!! Lots of ❤️

What did she say ?
@@dianaaltesse disgusting racist comments.
@@dianaaltesse i read in a vice artical she said racist stuff. but vice isnt a news source. idk if its true
@@devincristopher3 oh thank you for the news. I really didn’t know about that. I’m glad I didn’t buy anything from her collection 😁
@@deborahsmith9968 thank you Deborah for the news. Take care 😘
I only like some of the dots, some I agree with you that looks juvenile
Love everything when you understand it so meaningfull
🥰🥰

Ooo yes the art is a whole different price!
Was considering until i looked at the real price, even a print can go for around millions...... that train/ ship has sailed for me.

Ooo yes! I think you would need to wear a tshirt that doesn’t already have cartoons to style this collection! I also have many cartoon tshirts 😋
No dots for me.
It’s a hard no for me. I prefer purchasing and owning things that are happy.
Buy a bag with a scary or crying face on it? No thanks.
Totally see what you mean!
Very sad that money is an object, lol.
No disrespect to kusama but I honestly think kusama's art and louis vuitton don't mix well
I'm sad that she seems so controversial now
How come she's controversial?
While I can appreciate her art and especially the colorful pumpkins, I cannot see myself carrying any of these bags. Some are cute but very busy and loud and some are just strange and off putting.
hmm yes i need to see them IRL! in any case i would not a buy a bag...maybe a scarf
first
🥰🥰🥰
