Described as “the traveling wardrobe of an African king” by Louis Vuitton men’s design director Paul Helbers, the new Autumn/Winter 2009/10 men’s collection is totally unaffected by the global recession. With the new collection, Louis Vuitton hopes to give tough competition to the other famous European fashion houses. The luxurious items include pieces in antelope leather and a mink coat, but the one that makes for the highlight of the new collection is an alligator officer’s jacket lately shown in Paris. The tunic-styled jacket has been done in top-grade tan alligator skin with antiqued gold buttons and epaulettes. Pricing remains a mystery for now, but it’s being expected to cost somewhere between $50,000 and $75,000, and will probably be available on special order.
