Louis Vuitton Travels to the Future with New, Cobalt-Cool Leather Goods

LV

Perhaps the most iconic fashion house, french label Louis Vuitton looked to the future with the brand’s Homme Autumn/Winter 2014 runway show. Inspired by the digital aspects of travel—think new age craftmanship, aerial photography-inspired textures, and refined fabrics) the collection provided a technical contrast between technology and luxurious, hand-crafted pieces. Paired with bold silhouettes and futuristic-knitwear, Louis Vuitton also unveiled a new collection of cobalt Damier canvas pieces built around three universes: city, travel and small leather goods. These items, 16 in total that rage from messenger bags to bill folds, reinvent the brand’s legendary checkered canvas into a deep, timeless, and modern blue. Pieces will be online starting the 16th of January, and in-store starting the 31st.
