Very Troubled Child


If you are a Wes Anderson fan, no doubt you have seen the Darjeeling Limited, and like every Wes Anderson film, the details are what makes the movie special. One of the most important details in the film is the custom Louis Vuitton matched luggage which plays a prominent role in the storyline as the three brothers trek across India. 

The brand Very Troubled Child, takes its name from a fictional book in Wes Anderson's Moonrise Kingdom and is the brainchild of Alberto Favaretto an Italian who now lives in Hong Kong. Alberto, a fan of Anderson's work wanted to create high-quality, but affordable versions of the luggage inspired by the film but putting his own unique twist on each collection. Each piece pays homage to the esthetic that Anderson is known for but still stands on their own. 



Founded by Favaretto in 2013, Very Troubled Child's collections comprise mainly personalized 100% genuine leather travel bags including duffles, soft suitcases, messengers, clutches and other travel accessories like passport holders and wallets. But they also offer pajamas, cell phone cases, sweaters, bathrobes, and much more, all of which would be right at home in any Wes Anderson film. 



The collection shown here is from their Savanna Collection which offers three hard trunks, three soft bags including the duffle, a backpack, small bags, a belt, and passport case. In addition to the Savanna, they have the 'Birds of Feather' Collection, the "Seafarer' Collection, and have recently introduced the new lower-priced canvas 'Zebra' Collection. Prices range from $145 to $2,999 depending on the bag/trunk.
