· Takashi Murakami·

Japanese artist Takashi Murakami was born in Tokyo in 1962. He is good at integrating traditional Japanese art, science fiction, animation and cute characters full of whimsy to create repetitive patterns, showing a clever fusion of pop culture, history and art.

This is the first time Louis Vuitton has collaborated with Takashi Murakami again in 20 years. In 2002, Marc Jacobs, then artistic director of Louis Vuitton, first encountered Murakami's works in Paris and was attracted by his rich colors and "super flat" two-dimensional painting style. He gladly invited the latter to collaborate. This collaboration also opened a new era of fashion crossing over art and culture, and the impact covered the entire mainstream culture of the early 2000s.

· Smiley Flower·

This Speedy 20 handbag cleverly combines Murakami's most representative "Smiling Flower" with LV's iconic Monogram floral elements - the colorful sunflower is transformed into a four-petal flower shape and integrated with an anthropomorphic smiling expression, and is rendered in red, blue, white, green, yellow, orange, pink and other colorful colors through silk-screen printing technology. The cheerful and lively floral prints are particularly suitable for the spring flower-viewing season.

Murakami Takashi's smiling sunflower was created in the 1990s . It is loved by the fashion industry for its cute expression and bright colors. It is still one of the most popular trend elements. In fact, the design of the smiling face flower has a deeper meaning. It contains Murakami Takashi's message to the victims of the nuclear explosion in World War II - even if you are in pain, don't forget to smile and be brave . If you look closely, you will find that every smiling sunflower actually has tears in its eyes.

The bag is made of classic Monogram coated canvas , and the printed pattern stretches naturally from the bottom of the bag upwards, like flowers blooming freely in a garden, full of vitality and vitality. Relying on advanced digital printing technology, the printing effect of each piece has been upgraded and renewed, with brighter colors and clearer and more accurate patterns.

Louis Vuitton's classic Speedy travel bag was born in 1930 and was designed by Gaston-Louis Vuitton , the third-generation heir of the brand .

In 1959, the Speedy handbag reappeared in Monogram canvas material, attracting celebrities such as Audrey Hepburn to "bring goods".

With its classic appearance, practical attributes and affordable price, Speedy has always been one of Louis Vuitton's most classic and best-selling it bags for nearly a century.
