For the love of dots

Louis Vuitton's latest collection is certainly a fun one, featuring the colourful painted dots of revered artist YAYOI KUSAMA.

Louis Vuitton has long prided itself for working with artists, a storied history that dates back to almost a century ago when the eponymous founder's grandson, Gaston-Louis Vuitton, began commissioning artists to create store windows and works.

One decade on since their first collection, the maison continues its relationship with Yayoi Kusama, evolving, expanding, and sharing creative exchanges for a new collaboration of ready-to-wear, bags, shoes, fragrances, luggage and trunks.

This LVxYK Capucines BB in white comes with a high-spirited print that echoes the revered Japanese artist's obsession with dots.

A recurrent motif in her work, the 3D Painted Dots appear here in multicolour, screen-printed with a subtle relief effect on fine, supple Taurillon bull calf leather.
