Louis Vuitton has collaborated with Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama with a new collection that will launch at Louis Vuitton boutiques starting tomorrow, July 10th in NYC at the Fifth Avenue Maison and Soho Kusama concept store. The collection will then be available nationwide in select Louis Vuitton locations on July 19th.
Marc Jacobs has been a fan of the artist's sculptures and paintings when he encountered her work in Tokyo back in 2006. In this fun collection, Kusama's organic repetitive polka dot patterns cover everything from ready-to-wear to bags, accessories, and shoes. For the artist, who sees her life as "a dot lost among millions of other dots", this collaboration will allow her to spread her polka dots infinitely across the world and convey her message: "Love Forever".
You also won't want to miss all the beautiful Louis Vuitton windows worldwide which will be decorated with Kusama's emblematic motifs. If you are in NY, the Yayoi Kusama exhibit will be at the Whitney Museum. I can't wait to see the displays at Champs-Élysées LV in Paris!
