Louis Vuitton: Women's Voyager Show' Pre-Fall 2024

One word for this collection: Artistic Zest.

The zestiness kicked off in the streets of Shangai where inflated artworks were spotted by passersby marking the much anticipated Voyager Reveal. 

These inflatable creations serve as a playful nod to the artistic world of Sun Yitian, known for her vibrant and mass-produced artistic objects that captivate viewers. Collaborating with LV, Sun’s partnership blurs the boundary between representation and abstraction, creating a mesmerising visual experience.

As the show unfolded, the garments radiated a whimsical energy that felt both fun and refreshing. It was a dazzling array of designs, each crafted to captivate and enchant everyone.

The Opening Look

The first look was a bold statement of contemporary fashion. A modest cut dress with long sleeves and a classic collar, paired with a distinctive wide black belt that cinches at the chest. What truly set this piece apart was the illustrative print of a fox's face on the front of the dress which added a touch of drama and the belt, structure to the dress' otherwise relaxed silhouette. 

The pastel light pink gives the garment a feminine touch. This playful juxtaposition of classic design and modern graphic elements embodies the fusion of art and wearable fashion.

Trend Watch

Collars

Floral embellishments on collars of shirts and dresses.

Skirts

From distressed to asymmetrical and dimensional skirts, no shape was out of the question. 

We have a soft spot for oversized fashion, so why not take it to the next level with an exaggerated Pouf dress?!

Beyond the whimsy, the collection also exuded sophistication with an edgy twist. A standout piece was the leather-belted blazer dress, perfectly balancing chic and avant-garde. Pair this with the new Side Trunk PM Bag - perfection.

Animal Artistry

The distinctive animal motifs weren't confined to this dress alone; they made their way onto overcoats and stunningly into handbags, adding a whimsical touch to every piece.

A Floral Revival

The collection also showcased intricately detailed dresses, waistcoat and shorts ensembles, and a fresh take on floral prints.

Jacket Statement

Oversized gilet-style jackets stole the spotlight with their high necks and larger-than-life pockets.

Could this be the next trend, replacing the era of excessive layering?
