Louis Vuitton collaborated with James Chinlund to create an immersive show venue that mimicked a hot air balloon… inspired by the spirit of travel so dear to the maison

The hot air balloon theme becomes the protagonist of the collection itself with a wardrobe made of volumes and contrasts: balloon hems on oversized jackets, parachute sleeves on blouses, fluid and draped skirts that move gracefully in the wind and slits in tailored outerwear that fall like ribbons.

Most looks boast a vintage feel with muted bright tones touched on the mod color-blocking of the ’60s, the maximalism of the ’80s, and the languid quality of the ’90s.

Finally, Ghesquière paired it all with woven leather high-heeled shoes that looked like a knotted handkerchief and showed off a long series of gorgeous bags.
