A Nouveau Louis Vuitton
Tuesday, March 11, 2008
(NEW YORK) Louis Vuitton is preparing for a major launch of a new accessory line, Fashion Week Daily has learned. Monogramouflage, as it is expected to be called, will combine the iconic French brand's monogram canvas with a new camouflage print designed by Takashi Murakami and Marc Jacobs. Vuitton brass will unveil the new collection on June 1 at a pop-up shop that will open at the Brooklyn Museum of Art (similar to the one at the MOCA in Los Angeles), following the "Brooklyn Ball" gala on April 3 heralding the East Coast Murakami retrospective. The products will then be sold at Vuitton stores worldwide starting June 15. Vuitton is a sponsor of the event (which is said to feature a performance by Jay-Z), and sales from the special museum store that night will benefit the Federal Enforcement Homeland Security Foundation. The Murakami exhibit will be open to the public from April 5 to July 3.click here for the previous LA exhibition
