Playful and celebratory, Louis Vuitton marks the 20th anniversary of its era-defining collaboration with renowned Japanese artist Takashi Murakami with one final, vibrant encore. Chapter Three of the re-edition Louis Vuitton x Murakami collection arrives just in time for summer, bringing with it the return of the latter’s iconic smiling Cherry motif. The chapter feels less like a conclusion and more like a joyful tribute to a legacy that changed the fashion landscape.
While the accompanying campaign leans soft and romantic—the collection is part of Louis Vuitton's Resort 2025 womenswear collection—there’s no shortage of pieces that men can and should cop. Energetic in its many forms, the latest drop makes full use of the striking red of Murakami's Cherry to enliven a range of statement bags, shawl, accessories, and even a Cherry-accented bicycle.
These aren't just accessories, they're statements. Whether you're headed on a weekend staycation or planning a full-on summer escape, these Cherry-fied bags deliver both personality and practicality. Take the OnTheGo GM, for example. It makes for an ideal work bag but amped up with a glossy crystal finish and signature natural cowhide leather accents. The generous size easily fits a 13-inch laptop with room to spare. Inside, a removable pouch keeps your small essentials—earbuds, headphones, keys, cards, lip balm, hand sanitiser, or a travel-sized fragrance—neatly organised. Functional, refined, and unapologetically bold, it’s a work companion that does more than carry—it expresses.
A classic icon has been energised with the boldness and charm of the Cherry. The Keepall Bandoulière 45 is perfect as a cabin-sized carry-on and comes in two textured finishes—classic cowhide leather and a relaxed denim option—making one an ideal travel companion with style versatility.
Travel, after all, isn’t just about the destination, it’s also about how you arrive. The LV x TM Horizon 55 brings along a sense of joy and artistry to the journey. Crafted for modern movement, the luggage blends function with flair: a sleek exterior, TSA locks, and smooth-glide wheels meet a statement-making interior. Amid a sea of plain cases, this one stands out with intention.
There’s something uplifting about wrapping oneself in cherries. Whether it’s the silky pop of the LV x TM Monogram Cerise square or the cozy boldness of the Denim Cerise shawl, these scarves add just the right amount of whimsy to any outfit. Drape one over a plain white tee or neutral blazer, and suddenly your outfit looks elevated—like a wink to art, nostalgia, and joy all at once.
The LV x TM Jane Notebook MM brings a burst of personality to everyday note-taking. Adorned with a larger version of Murakami's playful Cherry motif, it's ideal for jotting down ideas on the fly, or organising your day with style.
Exclusively available with online purchases, the LV x Takashi Murakami Stickers and Cerise Bag Charm bring playful energy and personal expression to your everyday style. The sticker set features whimsical characters from the collection—perfect for customising laptops, notebooks, or water bottles with a dash of Murakami’s iconic flair. These limited-edition stickers are only available while stocks last. The Cerise Bag Charm is crafted in lustrous gold-toned metal and plexiglass, and adds a bold yet elegant finishing touch to any bag. Whether you're dressing up for the day or simply adding personality to your accessories, both pieces offer a fun way to make your look uniquely yours.
Louis Vuitton x Murakami: Chapter Three is now available online and in stores.
