Set to the most incredible score of Losing My Religion, Shiny Happy People and Orange Crush by R.E.M. and set in the most astounding and breathtaking venue in Paris at Parc André Citroën (a space which the brand also used back in 2011), Louis Vuitton unveiled a Spring/Summer 2014 collection themed around The Open Road.
Travel has always played a huge part in the brand’s heritage and this collection felt like a logical and natural progression. Length and silhouettes appeared daring for the brand, short shorts, cropped formalwear and oversized jackets.
From a detail perspective, the rich, darker tie-dye had a delicious edge that took it far beyond the norm and expected as a concept for luxury (something I’ve never seen before) and the use of kimono and jacquard silk for the formalwear felt natural and not brash in any way. Personal favourite looks below, with the whole show available to view here.
