Louis Vuitton's 'Ailleurs' Summer 2011 Collection

"Ailleurs", French for 'somewhere else' is the trendy new summer 2011 line by Louis Vuitton. The collection is vibrant, funky, chic and casual and makes you want to hit the beach as soon as possible. The line is perfect for a tropical vacation along the shores. It features exotic and vivid accessories, sassy dresses and sexy swimsuits.

The collection is made in collaboration with British artist Pippa Cunningham, who has also designed the Louis Vuitton Cruise Collection 2008 "St. Tropez Galliera". Cunningham has painted every picture and then it was given a watercolor effect by the process of silk screening.

The main attraction of this line are the canvas tote bags which come in two sizes; 'City' and 'Beach', and three amazing prints  'Promenade' (Ville), 'Escale' (Beach) and 'Aventure' (Jungle).

The 'Escale' designs features a casual vacation with a sandy beach and colorful tropical umbrellas and cocktails. The 'Promenade' line depicts the scene of relaxing strolls made in the shade of tall palm trees. The last print 'Aventure' has the scene of a dense tropical forest.

The bags come with adjustable handles in grained calf leather, golden metal elements and the trademark Louis Vuitton plaque. 'Promenade' and 'Escale' prints are also available on bright beach towels, colorful scarves and cute bag charms.

The bag charms are adorable and funky and features flowers in blue and orange, a palm tree and a beach house on it along with the Luis Vuitton Paris monogram.

Summer is a season for ballet flats but the Ailleurs collection features cork platforms. They are chunky and stylish in the summer colors of green and blue.

Besides this, the collection also features sexy two-piece swimsuits, sequin-embroidered T-shirts and strapless dresses in cotton and silk.

The glamorous and fun collection will be available in Louis Vuitton stores from April 15th 2011.
