French luxury designer Louis Vuitton is being ridiculed online over its latest handbag collection, a collaborative effort with American artist Jeff Koons.
The new line of handbags was unveiled on Tuesday and is called “Masters.”
The French fashion house, famous for its emblem and checkered bags, launched the new collection in which all the bags feature the works of artists such as Leonardo da Vinci, Rubens, Vincent Van Gogh and Titian.
Cate Blanchett, Jennifer Aniston, Michelle Williams and other celebrities attended the launch event at Paris’ Louvre museum.
However, the celebrity-backing didn’t win over many Louis Vuitton fans online as hundreds of commenters left negative remarks on the fashion house’s Facebook page.
“No offense, but how desperate the designers must be to use old masterpieces in order to create something ‘new.’ No creativity, no art, no respect,” one user wrote.
“Seriously, this looks like something I won’t buy for $35.00 in NYC’s Chinatown district. Disappointing,” another said.
“I don’t like these.... agree they look like something you might buy in a museum gift shop,” one disappointed user wrote.
Another wrote: “looks like MADE IN CHINA.. knock off… NO THANK YOU.”
A slew of unhappy fashionistas made their thoughts known.
But some came out in defense of the line.
