In picture: Louis Vuitton cruise collection show in Rio de Janeiro

Louis Vuitton creative director Nicolas Ghesquière showed his Cruise collection 2017 in Rio de Janeiro, Brasil. The show took place on Saturday May 28 in the Museum of Contemporary art (MAC) of Niterói. “Being able to show a fashion collection in such an architecturally powerful space is a sensorial experience,” said Ghesquire.

Ghesquière seems inspired by the worlds of sports, and the 2017 Cruise collection also pays homage to two major Brazilian artists: Hélio Oiticica, founder of the “neo-concrete” art movement and Aldemir Martins, an artist renowned for his paintings of flora and fauna. The first model wore a blue, yellow, red and white dress with scuba-like details and a paneled skirt. A report.
