The collection, an elegant ensemble of women’s ready-to-wear, leather goods, accessories, and jewellery, draws its inspiration from the timeless allure of the sea, capturing the essence of nautical adventure through the designs. With a keen eye on elegance and an effortless attitude, Louis Vuitton embarks on this journey, steering into new waters.
At the heart of this collection lies a sophisticated reinterpretation of classic sailor motifs, transformed with a youthful vibrancy that resonates with the best tales of seafaring adventures. The iconic navy and white palette serves as the anchor for the range, with stripes sailing across various pieces, from T-shirt dresses and crisp shirtings to plush knits. This traditional nautical theme is further explored through relaxed tailoring and casual-chic seaside ensembles, marrying the laid-back spirit of the coast with the signature sophistication characteristic of Louis Vuitton.
The leather goods in the collection are a testament to Louis Vuitton’s unparalleled craftsmanship and innovative design ethos. The vibrant red leather of the compact Coussin BB and the spacious Noé BB bucket style adds a dynamic pop of colour, while the new iconic GO-14 bag, with its reinterpretation of the malletage technique, weaves in historical elements from the brand’s trunk-making legacy. Accessories like the pochette version of the Twist West, adorned with a nautical-style chain strap, transition seamlessly from day to evening, epitomising the versatility and elegance that define the collection.
This Nautical Capsule Collection is more than just a seasonal offering; it is a statement of Louis Vuitton’s enduring legacy and its forward-looking vision. By harmonizing the rich heritage of nautical adventure with the polished aesthetics of modern luxury, Louis Vuitton not only pays homage to its roots in travel and exploration but also charts a course for the future of fashion. As the collection sets sail, Louis Vuitton invites us on a voyage of discovery, where the spirit of the sea meets the individual, the dreamer, the adventurer.

In the 25 years since Badu’s sophomore album ‘Mama’s Gun’, the multi-hyphenate Erykah Badu has achieved a rare but sweet taste of timelessness. The album brought an innovative zest to neo-soul that continues to bridge generations. Badu says she never doubted its potential. “You don’t have to be some special, brilliant person. You just have to be willing to do it and explore,” she says for her Schön! 49 digital cover story. “The role of an artist is to immerse themselves in the process because the thing itself is actually not the art. The art is the doing: it’s the taking part and the figuring it out.”
The award-winner’s warm greeting and gentle tone reveal an endearing softness behind the enigma of the legendary Badu – also known as Lo Down Loretta Brown, Badulla Oblongata and Analog Girl in a Digital World. These are just a few of her signature monikers, which she uses as a canvas to create. “Names are like clothing to me,” she explains. “It’s just an aesthetic that goes along with whatever piece of art I’m making. To come up with a name, with an imaginative description, is as creative as making a song.” Badu lives her life like a painter without lines and a poet without limits. Every aspect of her lifestyle is a manifestation of her art. “I have a very strong relationship with source, nature and technology, which are all the same to me. My strength comes from my practice,” she tells us.
