GOYARD // Scene Stealer

By Erika Brechtel @smallshopstudio

…a graphic designer’s dream…

Got a new “Design Under the Influence” on La Dolce Vita today!
Subject: you guessed it, Goyard…a little history, a little eye candy, and a few inspired-by products to make that covetable pattern your very own.

While researching, I collected a bunch of street style and celeb style images with Goyard bags front and center, clearly stealing the scene. Buggers.

I honestly wasn’t that familiar with the legendary French luggage manufacturer beyond the iconic pattern. I was most impressed with the fact that the pattern is hand painted! And the monogramming as well, which apparently you can custom order with family crests, crowns, you name it.

And like Louis Vuitton, L. Maison Goyard has expanded its product line beyond luggage and bags to include scarves, dog collars and bowls, an iPhone cover and iPad cases, and…did I really see a pink Barbie doll trunk?
