The Princess of Polka Dots for Louis Vuitton

Marc Jacobs from Louis Vuitton asked the ever eccentric artist, Yayoi Kusama, to collaborate and design a collection together more than 6 months ago, and the wait is over! You may think that the garments may be overwhelmingly "dotty" but Ms. Kusma has adopted her extraordinary art to fit the body on the garments designed by Marc Jacobs himself. Before I preview the collection, watch the video of Marc talking about his first encounter with Kusama and how their craftsmanship has translated into their designs.

So now that you have an idea of the wonderful relationship between these two artists started, now you can see the detail and work that went into the creation of the collection. I don't want to preview the whole collection, so here are my personal favourites:
