Zeitgeisty: Louis Vuitton bags in party mode
Louis Vuitton pitched its "tents" in the Louvre and showed a ready-to-wear collection characterized by exuberant details.
It's as if the countless chandeliers with all their crystals were a symbol of the brand's multifaceted richness. In the Louis Vuitton Spring / Summer Ready-To-Wear 2022 we see the ultimate layering and the return of noughties fashion.
An excess of accessories as far as the eye can see, rococo-style skirts, elements that are humorously reminiscent of Las Vegas in the 80s, and, of course, the now-familiar gender fluidity. The fashion house wants to make its statement in the debate here, too and went all out this season. A signal to what will hopefully soon be a fully party-loving clientele again.
A tightrope walk of a melange of trends and expression of the zeitgeist, which Creative Director Nicolas Ghesquière and his team finally achieved with bravura. And they did it at a location in the Louvre that is historic for Louis Vuitton: After all, it was in the Passage Richelieu that the brand founder himself met Empress Eugénie, wife of Napoleon III.

In the current collection, we find a new version of the Louis Vuitton Coussin introduced last year, which no longer comes across as "cuddly" but has now been covered with a patent leather layer. In addition, there are clutches worked in trunk style, which have already been made into it piece by Menswear Creative Director Virgil Abloh.
