Louis Vuitton Announces a Collaboration With Real Madrid

For the first time ever, Louis Vuitton is bringing its tailoring expertise to the world of soccer by designing both Formal Wear and Formal Travel Wear collections for the women's Real Madrid football team.

The bespoke collection comprises ready-to-wear pieces, footwear, accessories and luggage, designed to accompany the team through the defining moments of the season off the pitch. True to the maison's legacy of craftsmanship, signature elements like the iconic VVN leather label, typically seen on its heritage trunks, are subtly reimagined on the lapels of tailored jackets, crisp shirts and luxe knitwear.

Complementing the sharp silhouettes are a curated selection of accessories, including belts, loafers and pumps alongside travel pieces including a suitcase, backpack and even a chic passport cover. Each piece is adorned with white and gold stripes in the club's colors and an exclusive 'RM' insignia, symbolizing the synergy between fashion and football.

Blending elegance, comfort and performance, the collection not only reinforces Louis Vuitton's reputation for innovation and refinement, but also marks a cultural moment. As one of the most decorated football clubs in history steps into a new era of style, this collaboration is a testament to the shared pursuit of excellence between the French fashion house and the world of elite sport.

Though the pieces won't be available for public purchase, we'll be keeping a close eye from the sidelines to see the team suited and booted in this highly anticipated crossover. As the brand put it best: "Victory Travels in Louis Vuitton."
