Louis Vuitton x Murakami
“A fashion rule that I always break? I don’t think we even believe in those”
Two decades after their game-changing collaboration, Louis Vuitton and Takashi Murakami are back and the reunion is as fabulous as ever. This time, the House has dropped a re-edition collection that feels like a joyous explosion of art, fashion, and nostalgia. And who better to showcase the vibe than the ever-radiant Zendaya? The collection, with its playful energy and undeniable charm, is a love letter to the past while firmly planted in the now.
Murakami’s unmistakable aesthetic—vibrant, whimsical, and unapologetically bold—meets Louis Vuitton’s classic elegance in a way that feels like pure magic. The Alma and Speedy bags, among other iconic pieces, get a makeover, infused with kaleidoscopic patterns and bursts of color that breathe new life into the House’s signature designs. It’s a reminder that luxury can have a sense of humour and that heritage can embrace creativity without losing its roots.
If the designs feel familiar, it’s because Murakami’s work with Louis Vuitton defined an entire era of fashion. His 2003 Monogram Multicolore collection, in particular, was everywhere—spotted on early-2000s icons like Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan, and Jessica Simpson. The colorful monograms, cherry blossoms and smiling flowers were impossible to miss, becoming the ultimate status symbols of the Y2K fashion scene. From red carpets to reality TV, these bags were a badge of cool-girl luxury.
House ambassador Zendaya, as always, brings her effortless cool to the campaign for this re-edition. In behind-the-scenes glimpses, she talks about breaking fashion rules— “A fashion rule that I always break? I don’t think we even believe in those,” she adds. Her bold and fearless approach to style is the perfect reflection of what this collaboration stands for: freedom, fun, and a little bit of irreverence.
The Louis Vuitton x Murakami re-edition isn’t just a collection; it’s a celebration. It’s for the dreamers, the rule-breakers, and anyone who wants their accessories to feel as vibrant as their personality. With this comeback, Murakami and Louis Vuitton remind us why their partnership became iconic in the first place—because some collaborations truly stand the test of time.
