When one of the world’s most beloved brands decides to celebrate one of its most iconic prints, the project that ensues is destined to be epic. And that’s exactly what is happening with Louis Vuitton. To celebrate 160 years in the industry the brand has given carte blanche to six famous tastemakers, aka iconoclasts, to create a unique fashion piece using their illustrious monogram print.

Initiated by Louis Vuitton’s Executive Vice President, Delphine Arnault and Artistic Director of Women’s Collections Nicolas Ghesquière, the famed monogram print is set to inspire six renowned ‘iconoclasts’, who have been given full creative license to personally create a bag/and or piece of luggage.
