I don't think mustard yellow and mid blue compliment each other. There are so many beautiful colour combinations I don't know why this particular one was picked. I suppose plenty of marketing research was put into this decision but I don't find it very pleasing to the eye. Oh well, I don't particularly like orange either lol.

It's a complementary color - it has nothing to do with compliments and flattery. Complementary refers to its placement on the basic color wheel, which is factual and indisputable.

I know exactly what a complimentary colour is! Why in the world would you surmise that I thought it had a thing to do with compliments and flattery. What a ridiculous rude and condescending post!

Because complimentary and complementary have two different meanings. I surmised based it based on your choice of the one that means flattery, dear. Many apologies if I did not understand that you used one word but meant another.
 
OMG this is actually GREAT NEWS! The current packaging has been around for just over ten years and it's time to refresh it in my opinion. I still have several of the Épi-style boxes with the classic Royal blue ribbon... I can't wait to see what the new style will be and I am sure it has been very well thought out, especially after the recent Gucci packaging fiasco.

If it's really yellow, it will make my day! It's one of my favorite colors!
I agree with you, I hope this ends up being a lovely color. However, my OCD is going to lament the discontinuity of my small box tower. #strugglebus
 
I think a fresh new change is nice. I like the old boxes, but I especially like the older epi textured boxes.
I don't really keep the boxes anymore anyway. I have one small epi one (glad I saved it). I'll keep one brown one,now I need a new bag to have the new box [emoji12]

Yellow-gold paired with bright blue is THE quintessential Provencal color combo. I think the packaging is inspired by this, as well as LV's heritage.
