Ineffable lightness for Louis Vuitton Women’s Spring-Summer 2024 show

Backdropped by the vibrant glow of the symbolic scenography, Nicolas Ghesquière’s collection evokes a sense of nostalgia with familiar silhouettes, while daring contemporary details create an eye-catching allure.

As the sun sets over the City of Lights, the fashion world descends upon an iconic address, and Nicolas Ghesquière’s latest collection for Louis Vuitton unfolds in all its glory. Against the vibrant backdrop of a scenography that feels like a voyage into the future, Ghesquière weaves a narrative that effortlessly melds nostalgia with contemporary flair, creating an ensemble that is as refreshing as the spring breeze.

The Journey Begins

Presented at the Maison’s future address at 103 Avenue des Champs Élysées, Louis Vuitton’s Spring-Summer 2024 collection is an artistic exploration that invites fashion enthusiasts to embark on a visual odyssey. The setting is a sensory masterpiece – recycled and recyclable draping in mandarin orange mimicking the interior of a hot-air balloon. It’s as if we’re all ready to take flight, and the designs are our tickets to an unforgettable journey.

As the ethereal voice of French singer Zaho de Sagazan fills the air, the stage is set for a show that is nothing short of mesmerizing. James Chinlund’s scenography bathes the collection in the warm, golden glow of summer. It’s a moment of artistic harmony where fashion meets the sublime.

The Louis Vuitton Woman: Embodying Freedom and Elegance

The Louis Vuitton women, under Ghesquière’s masterful guidance, grace the runway with an aura of freedom. Hands tucked casually into the pockets of their impeccably tailored leather jackets, they stride confidently in flowing dresses made from mousseline, crepe, and charmeuse. Striped shirts, inspired by hotel decorative fabrics, add a whimsical touch. Graphic lines and checks seem to dance with each step, creating an almost weightless quality to the collection.

A new crossed belt, offered in solid, monogram, and checkerboard signatures, becomes a symbol of style and versatility. Ghesquière reinvents the concept of a hotel groom with light ensembles held up by skinny suspenders. Bomber jackets are paired with miniskirts, while volumes and layering embrace a multi-faceted femininity that harmoniously combines romanticism and tailoring.

Illusion Meets Innovation

Illusion and innovation come together in the collection’s fabrics. Tweed-like bouclé fabric, made from technical fibers and embroidered with micro-pearls, adds a touch of magic. It’s as if Ghesquière has woven stardust into the garments, creating an otherworldly allure.

The Rebirth of Iconic Bags

In the realm of accessories, Ghesquière takes iconic Louis Vuitton bags and gives them a fresh lease of life. The Alma bag, in its new avatars, is adorned with an easy-to-grab handle. A camera bag is transformed into a chic necklace, complementing the airy silhouettes and adding to the allure.
