Rei Kawakubo has revisited the sac plat with boldly conceived asymmetrical cut outs and raw-edged details. ‘Breaking the traditional Louis Vuitton monogram was the premise of this one work’ Kawakubo says ‘which was to find something that would be new, some kind of new value. although there are various ways of breaking to create something new, this time I tried to play it straight: I simply made some holes in the fabric of the bag.’
