pay to play
I love the legacy look of LV + its rich history. It’s a true timeless classic that has transcended the test of time. This being said, the play of phrase stems from the irony behind how in today’s society, many humans will go beyond their means by paying to play, just to feel like they belong to a lifestyle they can only dream of.
Given LV has been ranked amongst the top 5 of highest luxury brands in the world, with an expected $500 billion market value according to a fairly recent Bloomber Business Report, there were simply too many 5’s for me to not to play with LV (also “55” in Roman numerals). I also added highlights of orange in a subtle way since “55” reads very orange to me (from my synesthesia, of course).
