Each person’s style evolves. Some pieces inevitably stop feeling right—but that doesn’t make them any easier to part with. As fashion embraces more innovative and sustainable practices, there are now ways to rework what you already own and make it feel new again. That’s exactly the case for Vhong Navarro.

Vhong Navarro Reworks His Louis Vuitton Duffle Bag Into Custom Jackets

Vhong had a duffle bag from Louis Vuitton turned into one-of-one denim jackets. The distinguishable carrier is a heritage piece of the French luxury fashion house, embodying its iconic monogram print and structural body.

Judging by the looks of it, Vhong seems to have had the piece for a long time, which is unsurprising, given the investment-worthy nature of the maison. He brought it to Revibe Culture for a unique kind of makeover.

Revibe documented the process, showing how they carefully held and cut the leather. Its pieces were skillfully attached to two denim jackets, utilizing them as adornments at the backs and the pockets. It certainly added pizzazz to the otherwise basic garments.
