Louis Vuitton and Grace Coddington work alongside one another in launching a capsule collection of luxurious handbags that surrounds themselves around the theme of cats. The luxury house joins the designer in adorning signature silhouettes with adorable cat emblems. The collaborative collection goes by the name of 'The Catogram' and it is complete with fun visual designs of not only felines but some dogs and mice as well.
The designs retain the original aesthetics true to the luxury house, as the monogram branding details remain the same -- fun animals are added to give it a playful twist. The Louis Vuitton and Grace Coddington capsule is set to launch on November 2nd online and in retail locations.
