Super nature for Louis Vuitton Women’s Fall-Winter 2026 collection

The new Louis Vuitton collection by Nicolas Ghesquière proposes an architectural wardrobe designed for the twenty-first century and defined by the natural world. Production designer Jeremy Hindle, known for his work on the series Severance, transformed the Cour Carrée of the Louvre into an abstraction of nature. 

In the heart of a lush and geometric landscape, models transformed into a pastoral painting from a sci-fi fable. With extreme shapes and detailing, clothes are formed by the elements – wind, rain, snow and sun. Coats have monumental shoulders and headgear reaches towards the sky. Flora and fauna leave imprints on the garments devised to live within a landscape. Animalier patterns are woven into canvas and denim, taking on a new dimension. Invented flowers shaped in leather become both decoration and protection. 

Craft melds with technology to sublimate the creativity of nature. Buttons appear like minerals and heels resemble antlers. Vegetal furs invent new texture. Leather is grained, grooved and tanned to mirror wood with surreal suppleness. Jewels reinterpret dreamlike creations by Man Ray. Studded with the nail-heads of a Louis Vuitton trunk, parures travel from the past to the now. The nature and travel expertise of Louis Vuitton moves freely like nomadic peoples. Bags invite exploration and wanderlust, including the Noé, which shifts through time.
