And plenty of them. The brand’s flagship boutiques have become an artist’s canvas for thework of an author who goes by the name of Yayoi Kusama, and this 93-year-old Japanese artist and writer is renowned for her radiant creativity, at the core of which is a motif in a circular form that has led to her being dubbed the “Queen of Polka Dots”. Although this isn’t the first time that Vuitton and Kusamahave co-signeda limited-editionseries, this time it certainly comes as a dose of fashion phantasmagoria that wasmore than needed by all of us. As a reminder, it was more than a decade ago, or more precisely in 2012, that thishouseof fashion’s thencreativedirector, AmericancreatorMarc Jacobs, launched thefirst collaboration withYayoi Kusama on a collectionof LVstyle pieces that were, thanks to her authentically abstract vision, more reminiscent of sculptures than trendy objects of desire. Today’s collaboration between this avant-garde artist and the fashionestablishment standardseems to lean more towards logomania than celebrating the author’s stamp.Kusama'splayful andalmostchildlikeartisticethos is presented on men’s sports shoes, hard-side suitcases and even a surfboard. Given that this collaboration has been conceived as a two-part collection, with the initial January launch followed by the continuation that’s set to arrive in mid-March, there will also be stylish “mainstays” of the Vuitton offer – you will be able to buy a special polka-dot version of the famous Speedy handbag, just like the fisherman’s bucket hats, glasses and silk pyjamas that are just too good to be reserved only for wearing “at home”. However, even if the cheapest accessories in this limited-edition series are out of your price range, don’tmiss out on the chance to checkout the lookof the special setting of boutiques during this encounter between fashion and art – merely entering the space is an interesting and almost psychedelic experience. And we’re sure you won’t be able to resist shooting a selfie in one of the polka-dot-covered mirrors.
