Louis Vuitton introduces its Resort 2026 collection as a summer wardrobe shaped around the rhythm of a holiday day. The season moves from beach dressing to Riviera getaways and sunset cocktails, with ready-to-wear, leather goods, shoes, and accessories designed for seaside play, travel, and evening plans. Color leads the collection, while surf references, denim, silk, rattan, terry textures, and sculptural accessories give each part of the day its own direction.

For the beach, Louis Vuitton turns to sporty pieces, vibrant shades, and surf references. Terry-knit sets with Bermuda shorts, orange and pink tie-dye polos, Monogram swimwear, and denim playsuits shape the seaside mood. The styling stays relaxed, with backless loafers, LV Mare thong sandals in orange or fuchsia leather, caps, and sand-colored leather vanity cases completing the summer wardrobe. The thong sandals carry gold-tone LV initials, partially overlaid with leather, giving the beach silhouettes a polished finish.
The surf story adds one of the collection’s clearest visual lines. Boards decorated with Monogram flowers and an ocean blue LV appear with tied triangle swim tops and smocked-waist shorts in micro-flower print. The Antigua tote continues the travel mood in sand-colored canvas, with a V-shaped leather patch and a yacht buoy luggage tag. Louis Vuitton uses these details to keep the beach section playful, graphic, and directly tied to the House codes.
Collector pieces give the beach chapter a sharper focus. The limited-edition Ace Ball recalls a volleyball and uses 18 leather and Monogram canvas panels. The Bag-Alow takes cues from California beach bungalows, with a leather shape based on stilt houses along the American West Coast. Accessories continue the playful tone through terry bucket hats in bright hues, rose-tinted Monogram sunglasses, and LV Cube necklaces in enamelled stone composite with colorful rhinestones and Damier engravings. The necklaces draw from the House’s archival Patéki game, created by Gaston-Louis Vuitton in 1932.
For holiday getaways, denim becomes a central part of the Resort wardrobe. Louis Vuitton uses it for jeans, a peplum top, and baggy shorts, styled with cropped polo shirts and tennis skirts. The LV Sneakerina returns with a new rubber sole for comfort and a sleek shape. The Alma BB bag in Epi leather arrives in bright colors, finished with a colorful braided cord and enamelled charms, adding a vivid accent to daytime travel looks.
A softer travel mood comes through thin-strap dresses trimmed with scalloped lace and LV embroidery, which revisits the monogrammed initials of a traditional trousseau. The Capucines appears in a basket version that takes cues from the 1982 Picnic Trunk, using handwoven rattan and traditional French savoir faire. Pastel peach silk day pyjamas with Palazzo pants bring another option for summer outings, paired with the Speedy LV Stamp. The bag features a signature chain, fine-striped canvas, a mini Monogram, and a baby pink circular seal stamped with the historic Louis Vuitton Trunks & Bags inscription.
Cocktail hour shifts the collection toward silk prints and evening accessories. Floral arabesques and ornamental chain details appear on a shirt-and-shorts ensemble, a shirt dress, an asymmetrical short dress, and square silk scarves worn in the hair. The Minigram bag in supple calf leather comes in light pink, banana yellow, and hazelnut. For summer nights, Louis Vuitton adds a black evening dress with lingerie-inspired details, a gold-tone sculptural pendant necklace, LV Treasure thong sandals, and the Capucines Sunbeam bag with multicolored beads and a hand-assembled jewel chain.
