Louis Vuitton – Meeting Juicy Couture’s Biggest Collector
Katerina Kladis only knows of five other people who collect Juicy Couture. “Two of the people don’t collect the clothes but are into the collectibles and the luggage pieces,” says Kladis from her home in Fort Lauderdale. “I haven’t seen anybody that’s in every single category.” Except, of course, for herself. Kladis owns more than 350 pieces of Juicy Couture: dog-print (known in the Juicy Couture world as “Scotty print”) luggage, a dainty tea set, a stack of notepads, and, of course, 25 tracksuits in lime green, fuchsia, and electric blue. Her room is filled with Juicy paraphernalia: a piggy bank that reads “Choose Juicy,” photo albums in saccharine hues, and a gumball machine complete with tiny gumballs. On her nightstand, there is a Greek Orthodox icon of Jesus—Kladis’s parents are Greek—surrounded by a checkerboard, a monogrammed clutch, and a pink tennis ball holder. Kladis also has a Juicy Couture–themed pedicure with the label’s signature crown on her big toe and manicure that shows off the various prints and logos that Juicy has boasted over the years.
