I have say, for accesories I avoid most luxury brands. Anything with a monogram especially or even any signature bag i.e. the Birkin. To me they are just a sign of wealth more then anything and usually the design is average, only usually seen as so amazing due to all the hype surrounding them.

But for apparel the last few seasons of both LV and Gucci have been pretty amazing for men's wear. Since Tom Ford left Gucci the brand really took a big dive but under direction of Frida Giannini it is looking fantastic. Still ticking all the classic Gucci boxes of sharp tailoring etc but with a much younger comtemporary look.

Same deal goes for LV. Although Marc Jacobs is creative directer I often wonder how much designing he actually does there.
