MILAN — For those tired of the “usual” places, there are new openings all over Milan ready to become the new go-to spots.

Louis Vuitton

A new Louis Vuitton destination has just opened in the renovated 1930s building known as the former Traversi garage. Developed on three floors, the first and the second stories are dedicated to retail, the women’s and men’s collections, respectively, recognizable also by the chosen color palette, pink and yellow for women and Keaton blue for men. The top floor will house Louis Vuitton special projects, including pop-ups and artistic exhibitions.

For the global launch of the Louis Vuitton x Yayoi Kusama collection, the third floor hosts an immersive installation in the world of the Japanese artist. Countless “infinity dots” cover both the floor and the walls. The collection is available for sale: bags, shoes, fragrances and clothing for both men and women. As a final touch, three huge, brightly colored pumpkins are placed on the terrace of the building, the symbol of the artist’s dichotomy representing her alter ego, the symbol of a hostile nature, fears and anxieties and a reassuring memory of her childhood, the house said.
