The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 12 December 2022 9 Comments

Happily for me, I do not love this bottle in the slightest, but perhaps it is a lemming of yours? From Louis Vuitton, Symphony in the Murano Art Edition of Frank Gehry's design for the brand's Les Extraits collection: "Elevating fragrance to art, the new bottle is created in collaboration with legendary architect Frank Gehry and Glass Master Simone Cenedese. A remarkable transformation of Gehry’s design for the iconic Les Extraits Collection, each limited-edition is as unique as nature itself, resembling a blooming flower that poetically embodies his trademark free-flowing, yet sculptural forms." 40 were made, I do not know the cost. (Bear in mind that the "regular" bottle of Symphony is $530.)

    Hmm not interested in the slightest, but my first thought was, “I thought Marc Jacobs discontinued Lola.”

    All that work and undoubtedly high price, and the stopper clashes with the bottle…

    Honestly, that stopper looks as if a bunch of garbage is being stuffed into the bottle. I don’t get it at all.

    These bottle caps do not resonate with me at all. I can see how this might be an intersting shape in a building with the interplay of light and shade and space. That somehow does not translate well to a bottle cap. Size matters, perhaps.
