LV NOW

The photographer Patrick Demarchelier has captured the essence of the Louis Vuitton woman, embodied by actress and friend of the House, Michelle Williams.

Taking its name from "Rue des Capucines" in Paris, where Louis Vuitton opened his first store in 1854, the elegant Capucines handbag is softened by a delicate and feminine cut, inspired by the lace croquets technique. A homage to exceptional leather craftsmanship.

Created in 2012, the Objets Nomades collection keeps alive Louis Vuitton’s long tradition of beautifully crafted travel objects. Some of the world’s most renowned designers have since imagined stunning travel-inspired Objets, which have then been made by Louis Vuitton.

The limited editions and experimental prototypes that make up the Objets Nomades collection, all pay homage to the House’s special orders of the past, and add the defiantly contemporary visions of creative designers from around the world: Atelier Oï, Maarten Baas, Barber and Osgerby, the Campana Brothers, Damien Langlois-Meurinne, Nendo, Gwenaël Nicolas, Raw Edges, Patricia Urquiola, Marcel Wanders, and most recently, India Mahdavi and Tokujin Yoshioka.

Today, there are 25 Objets Nomades and 10 among them will be presented for the first time during Fuori Salone in Milano. From a hammock to a deckchair, from a swing chair to a foldable stool. Each Objet embodies the same ideals: a love of the beauty of fine materials, the possibility of forms and carefully balanced proportions, complex and meticulous craftsmanship, and close attention to detail.

To present the Louis Vuitton Fall-Winter Collection by Nicolas Ghesquière, Yoann Lemoine, a.k.a. Woodkid, created the modern sculpture, “Six Girls.” Taking hundreds of pictures of Atty, Kristen, Mariam, Hannah, Daphne and Hoyeon, he made 3-D scans of their different forms, transforming each girl into an avatar, a video heroine of our time.  Digital glitches create an effect of erosion, like water on a stone statue.
Music: “Carol No. 1” by Woodkid

Louis Vuitton brings heritage and luxury to the realm of sportswear, with a collection of men's ready-to-wear, bags, shoes and accessories inspired by the America's Cup and the daring sailors who contest it. With looks for the beach, for a day at the sails, or for evenings out, the line features strong graphics and bold, contrasted coloring, paired with the House's signature sophistication, elegance and savoir-faire.
