Louis Vuitton and Takashi Murakami are back for round two of their 20th anniversary re-edition collaboration, now in full bloom with the iconic Cherry Blossom motif
Some collaborations make headlines, but Louis Vuitton x Takashi Murakami made an era. Two decades after the debut of their culture-shifting partnership, the duo has reunited for a long-awaited revival of one of the most iconic collaborations in fashion history.
Rolling out in three instalments, the first chapter of Louis Vuitton x Murakami, which dropped earlier this year, brought back the legendary Multicolore Monogram pattern and instantly sent fashion enthusiasts into overdrive. Now, chapter two has arrived just in time for spring, with Murakami’s Y2K-favourite Cherry Blossom motif taking centre stage.

First introduced in 2003, the motif graces over 40 Louis Vuitton creations, from the classic City Bags and Art of Travel luggages to silk Carrés, footwear, and even a made-to-order Malle Wardrobe. The Spell on You perfume was also given a whimsical makeover, with Murakami’s blossoms dancing across the bottle, cylindrical packaging, travel case, as well as the glass dome of the Ultimate Flacon.

Returning to front the campaign is none other than house ambassador Zendaya, lensed by renowned Dutch photographers Inez and Vinoodh. Draped in standout pieces from the collection—including the Capucines Mini and OnTheGo in Monogram canvas— the visuals capture the actress in an urban dreamscape, surrounded by Murakami’s floating blossoms.
