Amélie Bertrand - Inspired by summer nightlife, Amélie Bertrand’s hand-sprayed creation is the first-ever glow-in-the-dark Capucines. Made from an innovative pigment treatment, the graduated color scheme of the bag gleams with phosphorescence. A pair of oversized flowers and a kaleidoscopic chain that went under the “scarabeo” galvanizing process serves as a visually arresting ornament for the bag.

Inspired by a double-design concept, Daniel creates a bag that has symmetrical halves with each side differently colored with Louis Vuitton Taurillon leather.
