Divine Design


Louis Vuitton got together with Parsons for a student design project called, appropriately, "Reconstruction."

Ten teams of two students each were given pieces from the Vuitton archive, as well as signature looks from Marc Jacobs. Judges for the contest, held last week, included Harold Koda of the Met’s Costume Institute and Nick Sullivan of Esquire magazine.


And the winners? They were Min Sun Kim and Lydia (Yeo Chung) Kim, for a design that remixed men’s wear and a trench coat, with a hand-painted hem.
