LV NOW

Historical trunks of the House still influence the designers. Thus, Nicolas Ghesquière immersed himself in the archives of Louis Vuitton and started designing models with the sticker spirit that used to be sprinkled on the trunks in the past.

This year, a selection of Monogram icons come printed with new stickers that refer to the utmost cosmopolitan cities or paintings from the Hyperrealistic movement: the Monogram World Tour collection. From the Pégase suitcase to the now essential Petite Malle, enjoy the art of travelling in style.

From October 22nd, 2016 to February 20th, 2017, the Fondation Louis Vuitton features an exhibition that pays tribute to one of the greatest art patrons of the early 20th century, Sergei Shchukin, the visionary Russian collector of French modern art, whose collection “remains little know to the general western public even today” states Anne Baldassari, curator of the exhibition. “In fact, since it was broken up in 1948 it has never been gathered as a singular and coherent artistic entity”, continues Baldassari.

Thanks to the generous contribution of the Hermitage Museum and the Pushkin Museum, the exhibition presents a significant ensemble of 130 major pieces of French modern art in dialogue with 30 works of Russian avant-garde art. Throughout his life, Shchukin collected works by impressionists, post-impressionists and modern masters including Monet, Cézanne, Gauguin, Rousseau, Derain, Matisse, Picasso, Degas, Renoir, Toulouse-Lautrec, and Van Gogh.

By her side are the emblematic Twist and Capucines handbags. A new sign of discreet elegance, the Capucines, is the house’s savoir-faire incarnate, while the Twist is a modern classic designed by Nicolas Ghesquière.

The Cruise campaign lands in a new territory, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. This location is a natural follow up to the 2017 Cruise presentation staged here last May at the exclusive Niterói Contemporary Art Museum (MAC), a landmark building in Brazil designed by celebrated Brazilian architect Oscar Niemeyer.

The campaign images were also shot at the MAC and on the beach, a spectacular landscape of modernist space and escapism captured by photographer Patrick Demarchelier.
