PARIS
While the spirit of travel is often cited as a key
philosophy behind Louis Vuitton, there is more
than meets the eye in this fall’s sportswear-centric
collection by Nicolas Ghesquière. Sure, there were
super-luxe accents like denim that was actually
wool treated to look like faded blue jeans, fur
accents on short-sleeved jackets, and leather—a
key material—sleek in a black coat or crackled to
look worn and old. At the heart of the collection
were forever pieces that were anything but boring: a
pantsuit with a zip-up jacket in bright blue and white
contrast trim; knee-length slip dresses worked
with pleats, lace insets, sheer panels; a patterned
sweater that managed to be off-kilter yet chic.
