SHARE
Louis Vuitton is ushering in the holiday season with an exclusive, limited-edition timepiece that sets a new standard for luxury watchmaking. The Escale collection, with only 50 pieces available worldwide, is engraved with its unique number on a contrasting gold plaque on the open caseback.
This limited-edition watch features a 39mm diameter case crafted from 950 platinum to showcase the brand’s dedication to haute horlogerie. The design draws inspiration from LV’s trunk-inspired lugs and an octagonal crown reminiscent of trunk rivets. It is presented with a blue calfskin leather strap and a platinum pin buckle, reflecting its exclusivity and luxurious appeal.
The dial involves meticulous hand-finishing, assembly, and decoration of every component. It features a radial hand-guilloché pattern engraved on a white gold plate. This intricate pattern is adorned with champlevé and flinqué blue Grand Feu enamel, resulting in a deep, translucent blue finish. White gold brackets serve as hour markers at the quarters to enhance the dial’s elegance.
Alongside the watch debut, Louis Vuitton has also launched a stunning Winter 2024 collection that showcases a fusion of innovation and tradition, reflecting the Maison’s commitment to timeless style. Under Nicolas Ghesquière’s creative direction, the women’s collection celebrates his 10th anniversary with the brand, featuring graphic motifs, lustrous embroidery, avant-garde accessories, and reimagined handbags.
Meanwhile, Pharrell Williams leads the men’s collection, which reinterprets traditional workwear with contemporary flair, highlighted by emblematic yokes, leather appliqué motifs, Monogram jacquard denim, and a collaboration with Timberland.
A standout item, the Monogrammed Wool Cape blends high fashion with practical elegance. Its design captures the essence of winter chic, making it a perfect addition to any holiday wardrobe. For those looking to add a dash of color to their seasonal wardrobe, the collaboration with Takashi Murakami brings vibrant energy to the brand’s signature products. The Takashi Murakami Speedy bag offers a bold statement and a combination of playful artwork with the brand’s timeless patterns.
Louis Vuitton continues to strengthen its presence with the opening of new flagship stores and exclusive events. Located on the historic Place Vendôme, the brand’s Paris boutique has undergone a significant transformation under the direction of architect Peter Marino. Its façade is adorned with a metallic sun, and the interior boasts rare vintage furnishings, blending modern aesthetics with historical charm. The boutique showcases over 30 pieces by more than 20 artists, including works by Annie Morris and Farhad Moshiri to create an immersive cultural experience.
Louis Vuitton’s exciting launches offer a chance to indulge in luxury and style. Whether it is the exclusive watch, the latest fashion items, or the collaboration with any renowned artists, the brand is offering distinctive pieces for every discerning fashion enthusiast. These pieces are more than just trends. They represent a celebration of craftsmanship, innovation, and elegance to ensure that your holiday season is as stylish as it is memorable.
