Louis Vuitton and renowned Japanese artist Takashi Murakami continue to celebrate the 20th anniversary of their iconic collaboration with the launch of Louis Vuitton × Murakami re-edition collection Chapter Two. 

The series reinterprets the design of Cherry Blossoms, emphasizing the endless exchange of creative inspiration between luxury brands and contemporary artists. Featuring over 40 artworks, this chapter showcases the harmonious coexistence of traditional and modern artistic styles, paying tribute to the beauty of nature.

Into the world of Cherry Blossom

The re-edition collection uses advanced technology to make its characters and cherry blossom themes more vibrant. Highlights include Murakami’s Cherry Blossom-style City Bags such as The OnTheGo, The Papillon, The Boulogne, and The Speedy 25. The collection also features travel luggage such as The Rolling Trunk, The Keepall 45, and the Courrier Lozine 110 Fleurs with physical Cherry Blossom patches. Smaller leather items include The Nano Bucket bag and The Zippy wallet. Additionally, The Marellini, The Alma BB, and three different Capucines City Bags are all designed in a lively rose-coloured “cheeky pink” to complement the Cherry Blossom motif.

 

Following their original collaboration, the creative connection between Louis Vuitton and Murakami has been proven to transcend time and stylistic trends, resonating with generations and communities around the globe.

Aiming to continue the legacy of the iconic collaboration, the second part of the collection introduces timeless pieces to collect and cherish. The Cherry Blossom pieces will be available online on March 14 and in stores globally on March 21, just in time to celebrate Japan’s sakura season in 2025.
