Borne out of a longstanding camaraderie. Virgil Abloh invited the Japanese designer and founder of Human Made to partner on a one-off line fusing their individual approaches under the guise of Louis Vuitton. Celebrating the travel-centric core of the house LV2 observes the London Mod-era dandy through a Tokyo lens. This cross-pollination sets the tone for a tailoring focussed collection, evoking chapters in the formative years of Nigo who found much of his early inspiration in the subcultural history of London. While honoring the traditional sartorial values proposed in the mens Pre-Fall 2020 collection by Virgil Abloh. This limited edition zine documents and lays tribute to the two collaborators from initial meetings in Tokyo to the final realization of the collection as Virgil and Nigo over-see the project in Paris.
