The ever-present inspiration of travel across the universe of Louis Vuitton leads to a new Nautical Capsule that will be available starting March 22, 2024. Elegant in design and effortless in attitude, the collection spans women’s ready-to-wear, leather goods, accessories and fashion jewelry. From relaxed tailoring and casual-chic seaside ensembles to marine-themed bags and breezy silk scarves, classic sailor elements are re-transcribed with a youthful allure.
As spring approaches, this transitional range signals a sophisticated spin on feminine sportswear. Naturally, the looks are anchored by white and navy, while stripes appear throughout – whether across T-shirt dresses, crisp shirting or plush knits. A double-breasted blazer worn with shorts or a bustier paired with trousers convey a certain polish suited to both city and coastal dressing.
Turning to leather goods, red leather becomes a vibrant accent, whether as the compact Coussin BB or the spacious Noé BB bucket style. The GO-14 bag, the new iconic bag that reinterprets the malletage technique originally used on the inside of trunks, also exists in red or else in navy with mignons, small knots in white embroidery that punctuate the padded leather surface. With a nautical-style chain strap, the pochette version of the Twist West can be carried from day through evening. Meanwhile, both the Capucines Mini covered in striped sequins and a miniature lighthouse-shaped bag introduce novelty to the Nautical Capsule and are sure to make a splash.
New silks explore nautical motifs in the spirit of Louis Vuitton. As an iconic 90 square or the BB bandeau, the LV Cordage design conjures the high seas while integrating the Monogram. Light with a distinctive look, the Sailor Bandana features both the Monogram and Damier in four lively, complementary hues including vermillion and sky blue. Looks are completed with fashion jewelry that nods to sailing ropes– from delicate pointed Monogram flower earrings to a navy cuff emblazoned with the LV signature in lustrous gold-toned metal. Through mixing elements across the capsule, looks can be continually redefined with marine-minded ease.
