Influential
Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama, known for her eclectic, kitsch polka dot patterns
and symmetrical art, has joined forces with Louis Vuitton on a special capsule
collection exclusive to Louis Vuitton’s flagship stores, including the Champs-Élysées boutique, the largest in France.
Kusama’s statement,
unforgettable patterned artwork was recently showcased in an exhibition at
London’s Tate Modern museum and Vuitton’s London Bond Street store. She has worked
closely with Louis Vuitton’s creative director Marc Jacobs on a capsule
collection that fuses fashion with art.
The
aptly named Infinitely Kusama collection focuses on the artist’s statement dot
prints, which combine with Louis Vuitton’s signature style in a young and
upbeat summer wardrobe update. Choose from a variety of polka-dot bow shoes,
tote bags, on-trend removable collars and chunky cuffs.
