Kim Jones takes inspiration from the Pink City of India (Jaipur) for the latest Men’s Spring 2015 Campaign described as “an exploration of the origins of menswear.” The images are a picture of contemporary India remixed in the style of Louis Vuitton Artistic Director of Men’s Collections. The V, the letter of the spirit for Gaston-Louis Vuitton, is a symbolic letter that sets its graphic seal on this Louis Vuitton collection.
The highlights of the campaign are the looks with Gaston V signature fusing modern style with extreme functionality: the “technical voile jump jacket,” V Front Polo, “the washed silk voile jump trousers” accessorized with Start MM bags/ Pulse backpack and Aman sunglasses. The outfits were enhanced by simply wearing Madras bandanas with rings around the neck or head.
