Gathering outdoors, laughing in the sun, going wild by the beach… these are the must-haves of spring and summer. Louis Vuitton (Louis Vuitton) and Chanel (Chanel) have both brought the latest season of early spring fashion shows to the sunny seaside city, looking forward to the next spring with a strong sports resort style.
Recently, Louis Vuitton (Louis Vuitton) held its 2023 early spring fashion show at the Salk Institute (Salk Institute) in La Jolla, a northern suburb of San Diego, California.

Salk Institute

The Salk Institute is a biomedical institute designed by architect Louis Kahn in 1965 as a Brutalist building that resembles a secluded concrete monastery. The central courtyard passes between the two rows of buildings, integrating 29 independent scientific laboratories into the embrace of nature, enjoying the scenery of the sea and the sky.

This is also the first time that the Salk Institute has held a fashion show. Models shuttled through the central courtyard, with the famous "River of Life" fountain flowing in the middle of the courtyard. The sun is projected from the center of the entire building. At sunset, the building freezes the sun on the central axis of the central fountain. Under the rays of the setting sun, the water surface is sparkling, and everything around is bathed in a golden color.
Nicolas Ghesquière, creative director of Louis Vuitton womenswear, said: “It’s a very simple creative principle to be one with the sun, but in a warmer world today, it’s important to protect yourself. important too." The sun has also become a distinguished guest of the Louis Vuitton 2023 early spring series fashion show. Sunrise and sunset bring temperature changes, and wardrobe styles continue to evolve as a result. The fine sand and cliffs add a touch of nomadic style due to temperature changes, and the interpretation is smooth and elegant. Linens, jacquards, silks, leathers, tweeds… just like a metallic hue that shines in the sun. Cool metallic pants in gold, copper and silver, shirts with lava jacquard or reflective sequins, surf-inspired sneakers and LV Vernis skateboards...these pieces add to the new pre-spring collection. Sub-hard core texture.

Chanel 2022/23 Early Spring Resort Collection Launch

"I will never forget my time there, the terraces and balconies, the huge parasols, the baskets full of flowers, everything was beautiful." Chanel's 2022/23 Cruise Collection was released in Monte Carlo. Creative director Virginie Viard was inspired by the location itself, her personal memories of being there, and the intertwined history of Chanel and Monte Carlo.
"Monaco is more of an emotion for me, it's about Karl, Caroline, Charlotte," said Virginie Viard, creative director of Chanel boutiques. Knowing that we're going to have a launch there, or more specifically, at a beach hotel, that's Carl's dream."
