LOUIS VUITTONx STEPHEN SPROUSE, KEEPALL 50 GRAFFITI Monogram Travel Bag
Louis Vuitton
Inventive, enigmatic and supremely creative, Stephen Sprouse created artwork and clothing that captured the mood of the '80s. One of the first American designers to blend graffiti and a punk aesthetic with fashion, Sprouse manipulated conventional notions of style, and his unique sensibility has inspired designers from John Galliano to Raf Simmons to Marc Jacobs.
Sprouse's career began in the late '70s, when, after working for Halston, he moved to a Bowery warehouse and began making outfits for his neighbor, Debbie Harry. The fashion world quickly embraced his innovative and culturally relevant sensibility. Unfortunately, Sprouse's inability to compromise his artistic vision for the rigid fashion industry jeopardized his commercial success. His career was ultimately cut short by his tragic death in 2004 at the age of 50.
