Giving Louis a New Life
If you’re lucky enough to have a Louis Vuitton bag slung around your shoulders, you know the luxury brand costs a pretty penny. Unfortunately, the high price tag doesn’t guarantee it will last forever. The leather edges often crack, fade, and crease over time, and sending it for repair is like getting a medical bill for your Neverfull when it costs $200 to replace the straps and edging.

Chucking it into the trash would be a monumental waste, so talented seamstresses like Siah have repurposed their old luxury brand bags into new ones. While some might think it’s a tacky way to hold onto overpriced canvas because it has a famous logo, others love making their money work for them and getting to wear their old favorites in new ways.
