This is apparently virtual idol Hatsune Miku. Other than the pony tails and blue eyes, the drawing looks nothing like Hatsune Miku. It does look like Louis Vuitton’s 2013 spring collection, though. At least they got that right!
Hatsune Miku originally debuted as a character for Vocaloid software, but has since gone on to become Japan’s biggest virtual idol, holding live concerts and appearing in her own video games
Online in Japan, the reaction to the Jacobs design has not been kind, with people pointing out that this design not only doesn’t look like Miku, it just doesn’t look very cool.
For those who are not familiar with what Hatsune Miku looks like, below is her official illustration:
