Pharrell Williams saddles up for Louis Vuitton’s fall-winter 2024 collection, steering its journey from Parisian ateliers to the American frontier. He fuses reinvention with heritage in signature styles, like the Steamer bag with its echoes of historic travel trunks. While embodying the pioneering spirit of exploration, their contemporary functionality serves the modern traveller of today.
Starting with the tiny (but mighty), the Steamer 15 debuts in a new wearable wallet format. A convenient size for essentials, it measures 20 cm tall by 16.5 cm wide. The iconic chain-and-pin closure is further updated as a decorative lock with the ‘Louis Vuitton Marque Déposée’ signature engraving. The Steamer 15 (SGD5700) comes in either Monogram Dust coated canvas or LV Colorado calfskin.
The next size up is the Steamer 30 which functions in three different ways, thanks to its adjustable strap. This 34 cm by 30 cm bag transitions seamlessly from top-handle carry to backpack or crossbody sling. Multiple interior pockets further help organise your belongings, making it the perfect everyday companion. Retailing at SGD11,500, the Steamer 30 is only available in Monogram Dust coated-canvas.
The largest member of the family, the Steamer 40, offers a roominess reminiscent of an oversized tote. This 42 cm tall by 40 cm wide style serves the modern explorer who needs ample space for their adventures. Go for the LV Colorado (SGD16,000) calfskin option, or make a bold statement with the Monogram Jacquard Weave (SGD17,800) featuring an over-the-top LV print.
Craving a contemporary twist on the Steamer legacy? Louis Vuitton also launches a spin-off known as the Steamer Crossbody. This lightweight and supple bag seamlessly blends a cool attitude with exceptional comfort. This comes in either distressed Monogram Dust (SGD7300) coated canvas with aged cowhide leather trim or fine-grained LV Colorado (SGD7450) leather.
The new collection of Steamer bags caters to diverse journeys, from everyday commutes to weekend getaways, ensuring you carry a piece of Louis Vuitton’s legacy wherever you roam.
