Louis Vuitton Spring Summer 2026: The Intimacy of Home

At Louis Vuitton, Nicolas Ghesquière swapped sci-fi futurism for the intimacy of home. Staged in the restored summer apartments of Anne of Austria at the Louvre, the show unfolded like a meditation on coziness and grandeur.
Teddy-bear coats, bathrobe silhouettes, fuzzy knits, and toga-like gowns embraced comfort, while jeweled robes and fringed, beaded dresses dazzled with artistry. A camel-coat romper epitomized Ghesquière’s playful experimentation.
Guests wandered through curated interiors spanning centuries, from Art Deco seating to Dalpayrat ceramics, underscoring Vuitton’s embrace of rare experiences as much as rare garments. Cate Blanchett’s reading of This Must Be the Place sealed the sentiment: home, luxury, and belonging intertwined in a season where dressing for yourself felt like the ultimate indulgence.
