The Louis Vuitton Company is well known for their luxury fashion and leather goods. Founded in 1854 by its luggage-designing namesake, the company has, for most of its existence, catered to the wealthiest clientele by employing famous models and A-list celebrities in their marketing campaigns.
In early 2007, Louis Vuitton released their most expensive handbag, the Louis Vuitton Tribute Patchwork Bag. The bags, as the title suggests, were made of samples of different Louis Vuitton bags. The fifteen bags used come from the LV spring/summer and cruise lines. The gold chain shoulder strap makes this the perfect handbag for the discerning 90s rapper while the patchwork nature of the purse itself suggests that the person owning it may have a rusted truck propped up on cinder blocks in their front yard. Needless to say, the limited edition purse sold out almost immediately.
Louis Vuitton made twenty-four numbered copies of their most expensive handbags, priced at $45,000. A collection of denim patchwork bags, retailing for around $3,000-$5,000, followed shortly on the heels of the LV Tribute Patchwork Bag. As with any Louis Vuitton accessory, a counterfeit can be had for just a few hundred bucks.
In case you were wondering, Hermes Birkin still holds the record for the most expensive purse. At $64,800, their offering easily beats the LV Tribute Patchwork Bag.

This is the most ugliest handbag I’ve seen in my life. LV need a fashion check! $45,ooo…ah..ah..ah. Yeah right.
uhhhmm .. yeaa i agree with you shaka finnell! i saw beyonce with that bag. she must have no fashion sense! i think that bag should be in a yard sale for 30 cents. even at 30 sents … NO ONE would buy it! ew!
Who would want THAT hanging on their arm? It’s HIDEOUS!
$3,000-$5,000 seems ridiculous for these bags. Not only could that much cash buy a huge assortment of handbags elsewhere, but the designs depicted here just aren’t worth that much (unless the inside of the bag is lined with gold…)
I seen the author Shaka Finnell on Melrose with the most expensive Louis Vuitton handbag on. How can she say it’s uglies handbag she ever seen?
that is an ok bag but hello over 64,000????? ridiculous….
That purse is hideous………..I mean who would buy that UGLY thing. 1. It is way to expensive 2.it is the most hideous thing(obvious)…………and if u need any advice on CUTE purses look at teen vogue……….there purses are HOTT…….unlike yours!!!!!
I love Louis Vuitton in all, but that thing is the most disgusting purse I’ve ever seen. I could care less if it said Louis V. all over it, I wouldn’t pay 30 cents for it. Icck.
Looks interesting.
I LOVE LOUIS VUITTON’s bag, BUT this time, i dk about what they thinking of that piece of trash! especially they who bought that CUTE TRASH, i mean it costs us 45000!!!! i’d rather buy 5/6 birkin bags with different colour.HAHAHA
EEEEEWWWW i have a way cuter lv bag than that
THIS IS SO UGLY… rich ppl the only one who would buy that and they buy it cuz dey hav money to throw away.. when they can give to charities and stuff.
give me a break….
ewww this is so UGLY who would buy that!!!!!
this is so ugly why would someone buy it ewwwwww (you could just go in to primark and get a bag for like 12 pounds and it would be worth it cause its proper nice )xx
YUCK!!!! Thats nasty, it looks like a homemade hobo purse!
i would not pay $o.99 for this
waste of money by making themselves fool
i love louis vuitton bags, but this design is not worth this much. to me $30,000
Sick that people spend so much money on a simple item, that holds items haha… There are children dying IN THIS COUNTRY even, from malnutrition that could use a couple dollars. C’mon.
Very Ugly. If i gave it to somebody who don’t know what is Louis Vuitton. It doesn’t have any valuable. Do you think so??
I think it’s actually quite nice. It doesn’t look so pretty on the website, but it’s gorgeous when you take a look at it in real life. The detail on it is incredible. It’s very classy and is worth buying (if you can afford it). x
You guys cant afford it thats why you diss it
The bag is not ugly,but 40grans come on now nota pretty price fo it.
WHAT THE HELL .
you guys dont really know what's fashion .
duh .
saying that this bag is ugly .
haha .
why ?
I have like a lot of Louis Vuitton bags, and I'm 12, but even my daddy wouldn't get me that cuz it's ugly! $45,000 is pretty cheap for that bag. GO CHANEL! BTW i have a bunch of Chanel's too that are WAY better
Rich101 it looks like you are living in a fantasy world. No one cares that u have tons of bags, doesnt make you look interesting.
I think that it’s outside of the box….It’s very pretty and if u have the money to buy it then so be it…IF I had the money 2 I would get it!
