Nostalgia Meets Luxury: Louis Vuitton x Takashi Murakami Returns in 2025
Louis Vuitton is reigniting its creative partnership with Takashi Murakami, unveiling a re-edition collection that celebrates the duo’s groundbreaking 2003 collaboration. Supreme Leaks offered a first look on Instagram, stirring excitement with previews of the high-priced, high-fashion lineup.
The collection’s crown jewel is a $650,000 USD bag case, wrapped in Murakami’s signature multi-hued Louis Vuitton monogram. Additional items include a $3,750 USD leather carrier, a $65,500 USD monogrammed trunk, a $7,800 USD Capucines bag, and an array of chic accessories like belts, wallets, and coffee cups, many priced under $1,000 USD.
First introduced during Louis Vuitton’s Spring/Summer 2003 runway under Marc Jacobs, the original collaboration fused Murakami’s cartoon-inspired artistry with the house’s timeless elegance, making waves in both fashion and art. Designs such as monogramouflage and cherry blossoms became cultural icons, paving the way for luxury brand collaborations.
Set to launch on January 1, 2025, the new collection revisits this trailblazing era while offering updated takes on beloved designs. For collectors and fans alike, this drop promises a perfect blend of nostalgia and contemporary sophistication.
