The latest collection from Louis Vuitton, celebrating the creative spirit of Grace Coddington—fashion icon and devoted cat lover—whose feline companions are inseparable from both her life and her travels.
“My cats aren’t just adorable and delightful companions, they’re also a constant source of inspiration.”
With these words, Grace introduces her artistic journey within the Louis Vuitton universe, bringing along the elegance and refinement that have always defined her. Her cats have never been mere pets: often featured in her work, sometimes with a touch of irony, they’ve followed her from Paris fashion shows to photo shoots and travels around the world. Now, they return as the stars of a new story that continues the visual adventure she began in 2019 with Catogram—a playful encounter between her cats, Pumpkin and Blanket, and Nicolas Ghesquière’s dogs, Achille and Léon.
At the heart of Louis Vuitton Travels With is a desire to give space to Grace Coddington’s imagination, inviting her to explore the meaning of adventure through the stories of her cats and the deep bond they share. Alongside Blondie, Blanket, and Jimi, Grace embarks on a whimsical journey through iconic destinations like Sydney, London, the Amazon, the Great Wall of China, and even outer space. Her creativity knows no bounds. For the occasion, she’s designed a series of patches inspired by vintage travel labels once found on Louis Vuitton’s legendary trunks—symbols of the grand voyages of the past.
Undoubtedly, Grace is the heart and soul of this collection. She envisions a travel-ready wardrobe that blends practicality, lightness, and comfort without sacrificing personal style.
At the core are her signature midi dresses, adorned with iconic Louis Vuitton prints and a custom motif featuring playful mice and cats. Also featured are her beloved pajamas—more elegant than any office suit—offering a relaxed, refined approach to fashion. On the feet: only flats—sandals and sneakers—ideal for those constantly on the move.
For long flights or train journeys, cozy essentials are always within reach: soft blankets and throws crafted from luxurious materials like cashmere, silk, cotton, and buttery knitwear, designed to gently embrace the skin.
Grace’s deep understanding of the art of packing reflects the true origins of the Maison. Before becoming a global design icon, Louis Vuitton was a master trunk maker. With the same meticulous attention, Grace knows exactly how to fold, arrange, and pack every item with care and elegance. From this expertise comes an exclusive line of travel bags and accessories made from foldable plum-colored nylon. Among them, the timeless Keepall—completely collapsible for easy storage, yet unfolding with both beauty and functionality.
The collection is completed with accessories made in the Maison’s original Vintage Canvas, crafted from linen and cotton—a tribute to the woven fabric used on the historic trunks of the early 1900s. And of course, no Grace Coddington collection would be complete without a trunk. But not just any trunk. She reimagines the iconic Stokowski writing trunk with her own creative touch, turning it into a dream object for illustrators. Inside, you’ll find a removable easel, drawers for brushes, pencils, and art supplies—and, in true Grace fashion, a special compartment designed just for her cats. A piece that blends function, imagination, and artistic flair: with Grace Coddington, Volez, Voguez, Voyagez becomes more than a slogan. It’s a true expression of Art de Vivre.
