Long before the trails and tribulations of air travel, Louis Vuitton established itself as the ultimate luggage maker for steam train journeys, designing monogram emblazoned trunks and bags for the elite that moved their essentials effortlessly (and stylishly) across railways and continents. After 130 years of its iconic print, the house now looks to its origins to shape a new chapter defined by heritage, craftsmanship, and unbridled imagination — echoed throughout the new Monogram Anniversary Collection.

With a wide spanning range of leather goods and a remixed fragrance collection, at the heart of the story is the Alma bag, reintroduced as the Alma PM VVN — short for Vache Végétale Naturelle — which highlights one of the House’s most prized materials since the 19th century, beloved for its durability and the rich patina it develops naturally over time. Paired with the playful yet precise Micro Alma Bag Charm, the juxtaposition underscores Louis Vuitton’s enduring ability to reinterpret its codes in unexpected ways. Together, these pieces reflect a house that continues to move forward with elegance and enduring design.
