Since founding his atelier in 1940, Piero Fornasetti has enchanted design lovers through his intricate hand-drawings. While today the Italian artist is best known for his collectable ceramic plates, luxury candles and diffusers, the late creative’s work has been honored in a spectacular collaboration with Louis Vuitton<\/a>.<\/p>\n

As the French fashion house celebrates their founder’s 200th birthday this month, Nicolas Ghesqui\u00e8re’s Fall\/Winter 2021 collection has received the Fornasetti treatment with Barnaba Fornasetti’s distinct visual universe splayed across LV archival pieces (plucked from the house’s 13,000-piece archive in Milan).<\/p>\n

These garments and accessories use a rich combination of colors, textures and traditional, cutting-edge techniques including jacquard, embroidery and laser printing, intertwining Fornasetti\u2019s exquisitely illustrated world with Ghesqui\u00e8re\u2019s strikingly contemporary design.<\/p>\n

Highlights include lush velvet dresses, shiny printed jersey tops upon which Fornasetti drawings of ancient statues are overlaid on high-tech thermal-camera imagery, as well as more casual fleece hooded jackets and tailoring pieces. Oversized outerwear pieces feature Fornasetti prints, both in a stamp inspired colored version and, in a gold, coated version.<\/p>\n

This Louis Vuitton x Fornasetti capsule collection also features a broader selection of Louis Vuitton products that draw on Fornasetti motifs – such as buildings, locks, keys and portraits. This includes a stunning iteration of the iconic Cannes bucket bag in transformed leather, embellished with a Fornasetti black-and-white architectural drawing and reminiscent of the Renaissance-era Baptistery in Florence. The Maison also draws from innovative craftsmanship as witnessed through a reworked Petite Malle cross body that seems to have been inflated and covered with a dome printed metallic leather, creating a striking optical illusion.<\/p>\n

In all its facets, the Louis Vuitton x Fornasetti collaboration embodies the two Houses\u2019 shared sense of experimental traditionalism: an effective blend of Louis Vuitton\u2019s forward-looking creativity and craft and Fornasetti\u2019s magical and visionary depiction of the world.<\/p>\n

The collection is available in Louis Vuitton<\/a> boutiques worldwide from August.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1627,"featured_media":32482,"template":"","format":"standard","categories":[17,16],"yoast_head":"\nLouis Vuitton Taps The Fornasetti Atelier For An Enchanting Collaboration<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Since founding the atelier in 1940, Piero Fornasetti has enchanted design lovers through his intricate hand-drawings.
