When a limited-edition Louis drops, so do jaws.
Limited-edition collections at Louis Vuitton trace the house’s long history of engaging with artists and pushing craft into cultural currency. From graffiti to sculpture and polka dots to pop icons, each collaboration is part accessory, part artwork. For collectors, they’re pieces of fashion history coveted by art and luxury lovers alike. Let’s dive in.
Louis Vuitton x Stephen Sprouse
In 2001, then-creative director Marc Jacobs pulled Louis Vuitton into new territory by inviting Stephen Sprouse to scrawl fluorescent graffiti across the monogram. The Speedy and Alma suddenly became louder, brasher, and impossible to ignore. A 2009 tribute revisited the idea with neon roses and graffiti.
Louis Vuitton x Takashi Murakami
Two years later, Murakami’s Multicolore Monogram arrived for Spring/Summer 2003. Thirty-three colors splashed across a black or white canvas defined the decade. The line lasted until 2015. In 2025, Louis Vuitton relaunched Murakami’s designs in multiple chapters, from Multicolore to Cherry Blossom, fronted by Zendaya.
Louis Vuitton x Richard Prince
By 2008, Vuitton leaned into art with Richard Prince’s Joke bags. Text-based paintings were translated onto Speedys and Almas, turning accessories into conversation pieces. Less mainstream than Sprouse or Murakami, they became insider trophies.
Louis Vuitton x Yayoi Kusama
In 2012, polka dots marched across Louis Vuitton bags in collaboration with Yayoi Kusama. The Japanese artist’s infinity motif covered everything from Speedys to Keepalls, the repetition of dots creating an almost hypnotic effect. The collaboration returned in 2023 with more intensity, dotting trunks, Capucines, and Alma BBs.
Louis Vuitton x Supreme
The 2017 Supreme partnership collapsed the wall between streetwear and luxury. Box-logo trunks, hoodies, and Keepalls became instant resale legends, selling out in minutes and cementing Supreme x Vuitton as the gold standard of hype collaborations.
Louis Vuitton x Grace Coddington
2018 brought a different kind of whimsy. Grace Coddington, the former creative director of Vogue, sketched her beloved cats and dogs across Louis Vuitton canvases. The result was witty and affectionate, far from the graffiti boldness of earlier collaborations but no less distinct.
Louis Vuitton x Jeff Koons
The Masters collection reimagined Vuitton totes as portable museum pieces, emblazoned with Da Vinci, Van Gogh, and Rubens. Whether viewed as brilliant or kitsch, the bags remain unforgettable, which, in collecting terms, translates to being valuable.
Louis Vuitton x Virgil Abloh
As Men’s Artistic Director from 2018 to 2021, Virgil Abloh created some of the most collectible Louis Vuitton designs of the era. His Monogram Clouds, Monogram Sunset, and Prism Keepalls became instant icons. The Illusion Keepall and limited sneakers, including the Nike x Louis Vuitton Air Force 1s, remain highly sought after on the resale market.
Artycapucines Collection
Launched in 2019, the Artycapucines project has brought in artists from Urs Fischer to Billie Zangewa to transform the Capucines bag into sculpture. Only 200 of each edition are released annually, making them some of Vuitton’s rarest modern pieces.
Louis Vuitton x Nigo
Nigo, founder of BAPE and Human Made, first collaborated with Louis Vuitton under Virgil Abloh in 2020 with the LV² collection, a capsule that mixed Damier checks, denim, and playful Japanese motifs. In 2025, Pharrell Williams carried the partnership forward with a new collaboration that fused Nigo’s streetwear sensibility with Vuitton’s evolving vision for menswear.
