To commemorate the 20th anniversary of its groundbreaking collaboration, Louis Vuitton has unveiled the exclusive Louis Vuitton x Murakami pop-up in Singapore, marking the only showcase of its kind in Southeast Asia. The experiential pop-up highlights Takashi Murakami’s vibrant artistic legacy, bringing a modern reinterpretation of the iconic Monogram Multicolore pattern originally introduced in their celebrated partnership.
This unique pop-up will run from January 4 to January 19, 2025, housed in a historic Peranakan shophouse in the picturesque Joo Chiat district. Visitors will be greeted by a striking exterior featuring Murakami’s signature 3D Superflat Garden alongside the iconic Monogram Multicolore, setting the tone for an immersive journey.
At the core of this exhibition is “Chapter One” of the Louis Vuitton x Murakami collection, a re-edition that revives Murakami’s beloved designs with contemporary artistry. The collection spans an array of leather goods, ready-to-wear pieces, and exclusive made-to-order items, including the luxurious Malle Wardrobe. Louis Vuitton’s commitment to craftsmanship is elevated by Murakami’s intricate designs, offering enhanced color vibrancy and impeccable print precision.
Key highlights include:
- The Monogram Multicolore featuring interwoven LV and floral motifs in 33 vivid colors across iconic pieces like the Keepall, Dauphine, and Speedy bags.
- Murakami’s playful Superflat Panda and Superflat Garden characters featured on footwear, accessories, and the exquisite Courrier Lozine 110 Fleurs trunk.
- Limited-edition perfumes with bespoke Louis Vuitton x Murakami branding.
Inside, the pop-up is divided into four themed zones—Retail Space, Cinema, Care Station, and Café—blending shopping, culture, and dining into a cohesive experience. The minimalist design, inspired by Tokyo’s modular hotels, enhances the collection’s avant-garde spirit, inviting guests to explore the creative world of Louis Vuitton and Murakami.
Exclusive items, such as the LV x TM Superflat Panda cardholder and limited-edition gifts, are available only at this pop-up. The Louis Vuitton x Murakami Chapter One collection will also be available online and at Louis Vuitton stores in Singapore starting January 3, 2025. A follow-up “Chapter Two,” focusing on the Cherry Blossom pattern, is set to launch in March 2025.
This pop-up encapsulates the harmony of high fashion and artistic innovation, offering a one-of-a-kind opportunity to engage with a timeless collaboration.
