Louis Vuitton x Yayoi Kusama “Infinitely Kusama” Collection

This is the debut of the collaborative “Infinitely Kusama” collection from Parisian fashion house Louis Vuitton and Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama.
The entire range of accessories is set to debut on July 10, days ahead of the opening of Kusama’s retrospective exhibition at New York City’s Whitney Museum.

About Yayoi Kusama :

Well known for her use of dense patterns of polka dots and nets, as well as her intense, large-scale environments, Yayoi Kusama’s art encompasses an astonishing variety of media, including painting, drawing, sculpture, film, performance, and immersive installation. Born in Matsumoto, Japan in 1929, Kusama came to the U.S. in 1957 and quickly found herself at the epicenter of the 1960s avant-garde art world in New York. After achieving fame and notoriety with groundbreaking exhibitions, art happenings, and events, she returned to her native country in 1973 and is now Japan’s most prominent contemporary artist. This retrospective features works across many mediums from the full chronology of Kusama’s career.
