This year, L.A.-based pixel-art collective eBoy created a square that explores the theme of the iconic LV Monogram Flower motif. Titled “Maze of Precious,” the silk square depicts a digital Louis Vuitton labyrinth in hues of bright pink and butter yellow, perfect to wear or to frame. Available now. louisvuitton.com
