Many times Louis Vuitton has combined with artists but among them the simplest and the most influential was Yayoi Kusama. Kusama is famous for her polka dots and ‘irregular’ style and her influence has helped introduce a fun element at LV.
The Polka Dot Revolution
The primary theme of Yayoi Kusama’s work done with Louis Vuitton is polka dots. These dots that are now printed on bags, shoes and various others things are part of Kusama’s motifs. They add playfulness and originality to LV items and have that signature touch which sets the item apart yet makes lots of people want it.
Art Meets Fashion
Louis Vuitton and Yayoi Kusama cooperation is the best example of art and fashion collaboration. The influence of Kusama’s work can be observed not only in those elements of sets but in the concept of the entire collections created by designers. Every one of them is a masterpiece by itself, interpreting Kusama’s artistic experience through the lens of Louis Vuitton elegance.
Collectible Pieces
That is why the items from the Louis Vuitton Yayoi Kusama collection are not mere accessories, they are commodities. Therefore, most of these pieces are rare due to high demand due to production of copies by other artists as well as the shortage of original pieces that the Kusama has produced. Indeed, it is such privilege to possess a piece from this rather limited collection as much as it is to own an original work of art.
Conclusion
That between Louis Vuitton and Yayoi Kusama is undoubtedly one of the best collaboration that has come out in the fashion industry. Fusing Kusama’s experimental art and Louis Vuitton’s elegant materials, this is a fashion-must for art enthusiasts who love the concept of art/clothing hybrid. If you are fashion-conscious people, or if you have an artistic interest in collecting artwork, these creations and pices would be peculiar additions to your gallery.
