The Legacy of the Murakami Collection
Louis Vuitton is making waves this month with the re-release of its iconic collaboration with Takashi Murakami. Originally launched in the early 2000s, the vibrant, multicolored collection revolutionized luxury fashion—blending Murakami’s artistic vision with Louis Vuitton’s timeless monogram.
Featuring bold reinterpretations like the Multicolore Monogram, Cherry Blossom, and Panda designs, the collection became an instant classic. Today, these pieces are some of the most sought-after items in vintage luxury. The 2025 re-release honors this legacy by combining Murakami’s art with modern craftsmanship—offering a rare opportunity to own a piece of fashion history. But just like any other coveted luxury drop that takes over TikTok, the immense popularity of these bags has fueled a rise in counterfeits.
The Entrupy community understands that with greater hype comes greater responsibility. Ensuring every bag is 100% authentic is more essential than ever. And that’s why we’re here.
