Heart Evangelista is back in the Big Apple for New York Fashion Week, and as expected, she's already making headlines on her first day. Fabulous as always, completing her glam utility ensemble is a bold fashion statement that—wait a minute, is that... a can of paint??
LOOK: Heart Evangelista Wears Louis Vuitton's Paint Can Bag
Yup. Your eyes aren't lying to you. Paired with Heart's edgy all-white corseted ensemble by Marian Zara is a designer arm candy that looks a lot like a can of paint. The style star teamed her look with equally cool Prada Symbole sunglasses and a pair of towering silver platform pumps.
The LV Paint Can, which was first unveiled during the maison's monumental Men’s Fall/Winter 2022 runway show, is a tribute to Virgil Abloh's indelible influence on Louis Vuitton's creative ethos. A visionary in every sense, the late creative director often toyed with infusing classic leather goods with avant-garde interpretations. The Paint Can Bag stands as a whimsical testament to his playful and tongue-in-cheek approach to design.
The bag boasts a chrome LV-embossed metal handle and a ring top that pivots gracefully on a leather hinge. Its exterior is emblazoned with the words "EXTERIOR PAINT" boldly inscribed. It comes with some practical advice, too, urging the wearer to "handle with care." Inside, a microfiber lining harmoniously aligns with the bag's colorway, completing the overall aesthetic with a touch of finesse.
How Much Is Louis Vuitton Paint Can Bag?
The LV Paint Can is listed on Louis Vuitton' official website for SGD 4,150, which is approximately P173,000—give or take. Quite a hefty price tag, but it's a cool collectible that's decorated with playful references to Louis Vuitton’s heritage. And in case you're wondering, it's pretty practical, too. The bag is roomy enough to hold maybe two phones and some makeup.
Convinced? The exclusive LV Paint Can comes in six eye-grabbing colors that you can choose from, all inspired by Virgil Abloh’s signature palette.
