I guess I didn’t really leave but when I first jumped into luxury goods, I wasn’t at all interested in LV. I thought the canvas was such a boring brown and so logo heavy and just blah.
Then I discovered their higher tier pieces and just fell in love with the brand. They have so many colors and textures and silhouettes that I’m always finding something I love. I have actually purchased two traditional canvas pieces (a vanity pm and a world tour NF) but don’t gravitate towards them. I do tend to like the bright, fun collections. The fact that LV has their own exotics farms is a draw for me.
I tried to love Chanel but the bags are basically all the same and even worse is that the straps are all the same length and you’re SOL if that length doesn’t work for you. I do buy from other designers (and have a fair amount of H) but LV is the bulk of my collection.
