With summer comes the opportunity for travel and leisure. Louis Vuitton’s Spring/Summer 2012 bag, accessories, and luggage collection will ensure you jetset in luxury, and with the utmost class. Drawing on a sense of the classic Louis Vuitton Maison legacy, the new collection will witness again the presence of the luxe VVN leather – traditionally used as trim for the famed Monogram luggage – to provide accenting on outerwear, in the distinctive flat-pac sandals, and on many of the new mix-and-match belts, in addition to wooden marquetry elements.

The new men’s bag and luggage collection will debut a number of haute new bag styles, including the Champs Elysees quilted rucksacks and weekend bags, but what is perhaps most prominent of the collection are the new Nomade leather pieces. The goods evoke a timeless and chic style through simple and classic construction and a basic yet rich palette of olive green, burgundy, and tobacco. Hailing inspiration from the steamer bag of Gaston-Louis Vuitton – one of the brand’s own iconic travelers – and with the beloved classic logo, the pieces are absolutely stunning in their simple elegance.
