Louis Vuitton’s Resort Collection covers a summer day end-to-end, with terry-knit beachwear, denim getaway pieces, and silk cocktail dressing all under one wardrobe.

Louis Vuitton‘s Resort Collection runs the arc of a summer day across ready-to-wear, leather goods, shoes, and accessories cut for seaside play, chic getaways, and sunset cocktails.

The opening is sporty-chic with a surfer pull. A terry-knit Bermuda short ensemble pairs with backless loafers. Tie-dye polos in deep orange and pink carry a macramé Louis Vuitton patch. An oversized jersey T-shirt printed with a half-eaten ice lolly slips over a neo-sixties swimsuit in Monogram floral print, finished with a cap and a sand-colored leather vanity case. Elsewhere, a denim playsuit with the Monogram motif plays off the LV Mare thong sandals in orange or fuchsia leather, finished with gold-tone LV initials, partially overlaid with leather.

On the beach, vintage-chic surfer girls go after the best spot, boards decorated in Monogram flowers and an ocean blue LV. The uniform reads as a tied triangle swim top with shorts in a micro-flower print and smocked waist. Their carry is the sand-colored canvas Antigua tote with a V-shaped leather patch and a luggage tag cut in the shape of a yacht buoy.

Two collector pieces are at the center of the leather goods lineup. The limited-edition Ace Ball is built like a volleyball from 18 leather and Monogram canvas panels. Beside it, the Bag-Alow draws on California beach bungalows, shaped like the stilt houses found along the American West Coast and crafted from leather with refined detailing — a piece of Louis Vuitton savoir faire condensed into bag form.

Accessories carry the playful run. Terry bucket hats. Rose-tinted Monogram sunglasses. LV Cube necklaces in enameled stone composite with colorful rhinestones and Damier engravings, pulled from the House archive as a riff on the Patéki game, an avant-garde puzzle Gaston-Louis Vuitton designed in 1932.

The Patéki throwback opens a wider archival vein that runs through the getaway pieces. Denim cuts the contemporary staple for the Riviera, taken by motorcycle, bike, or convertible — jeans, a peplum top, baggy shorts, paired with cropped polos or tennis skirts that read young. Footwear gets the LV Sneakerina, now on a new rubber sole built for comfort and clean line.

The bag for the getaway is the Alma BB in Epi leather, in flashy colors with a colorful braided cord and enameled charms. For something more romantic, thin-strap dresses trimmed with scalloped lace revisit vintage linens, accented with LV embroidery that reworks the monogrammed initials of a traditional trousseau. The 1982 Picnic Trunk seeds the iconic Capucines bag, reworked here in a basket version of handwoven rattan executed in traditional French savoir faire.

Rattan gives way to silk for the day-into-night pieces. Pastel peach Palazzo pants paired with day pajamas read as elegantly off-duty, carried with the Speedy LV Stamp — a signature chain meets fine-striped canvas and a mini Monogram, finished with a circular baby pink seal stamped Louis Vuitton Trunks & Bags. Open it up and the interior carries a vintage-inspired floral print.

The collection’s silk prints land in floral arabesques and ornamental chain details, running across a shirt-and-shorts ensemble, a shirt dress, an asymmetrical short dress, and square silk scarves cut for the hair. On the arm, the Minigram bag in supple calf leather and small-scale Monogram comes in light pink, banana yellow, and hazelnut.

A little black evening dress takes its details from lingerie. A sculptural gold-tone pendant necklace mirrors the jewelry on the LV Treasure thong sandals. In hand, the Capucines Sunbeam bag draws the eye with its multicolored beads and a hand-assembled jewel chain. Last call, dressed.
