Louis Vuitton continues its celebrations of its era-defining partnership with Takashi Murakami. When the duo first came together to reveal a collaboration 20 years ago, the house of Louis Vuitton and the Japanese artist brought forward a kaleidoscopic reinterpretation of the iconic LV Monogram pattern marking the first time in its history it had been reworked. Now celebrated across genres, the house returns for a new collaboration of re-editions, reimagining the original collection with contemporary updates.
In over 200 pieces, the collaboration showcases the creative bond between the house and the artist, revealing an artistic vision that is known for its remarkable prints and craftsmanship. Considered to be a timeless collection that marks seminal moments in early 21st century pop and collector culture, the second chapter of the Louis Vuitton x Murakami collection focuses on a Spring style heavily influenced by the poetic celebration of Japan’s cherry blossom season.
This month sees the release of the second part of the collection, pinpointing the cherry blossom motif on more than 40 of the house’s creations from the city bags to the silk Carrés, to even sneakers and sandals. The motif extends to the Malle Wardrobe that is made-to-order, along with the luggage accessories like the rolling trunk, the Keepall and more. Other smaller leather designs including The Nano Bucket bag and The Zippy wallet will also receive the treatment. Lastly, the Spell on You perfume is given a playful lift as the Cherry Blossom motif is displayed “in floral flight” across the bottle, cylindrical packaging and travel case, as well as on the glass dome of the Ultimate Flacon.
Zendaya returns to star in the campaign. The second chapter will be pre-launched online on March 14 and will be available worldwide across retailers on March 21.
