Standing tall in a landmark brick building, set off with plenty of sunlit windows, the legendary maison invites guests to dive into a treasure trove of women’s and men’s ready-to-wear garments, singular leather goods and high jewelry, bespoke offerings, and the must-have Objets Nomades collection—perfect for designing or reinvigorating a beloved seaside hideaway.

While winding through the warm and inviting space of light woods, banana palms, and shimmering tiers of glass, which evokes a peaceful stroll down a stretch of nearby beach, visitors were met with a trifecta of style, innovation, and sophistication. Intoxicating perfumes abound, with the brand’s sleek watches, monogram handbags, and vividly-patterned clothing bringing awe and excitement at every turn. In a serene echoing of the natural environment, the store's central atrium is elevated by a geometric floor of blue and white floral tile, setting the stage for a luxurious hammock by Atelier Oï, monogram pillows, a sumptuous holiday trunk, and enchanting “Hamptons” accessories.

Soft, sand-hued Objets Nomades lanterns, designed by Zanellato/Bortotto, sets the space aglow, illuminating seasonal delights such as the limited-edition Neverfull bag and a store-exclusive monogram fan for those balmy summer evenings. The “LV By the Pool” collection is drenched in star quality, boasting special Nautical-themed garments, accessories, and outdoor decoration of tranquil lanterns and gleaming tableware. The brand’s posh trunks rejoice in the games of the season with the Malle Golf and the Vanity Mahjong—perfect for party-hopping through the Hamptons as the guest du jour. Hosting an upcoming soirėe? The bespoke Ping-Pong table, and the cozy Cocoon chairs by the Campanas, will certainly catch your eye, fit for guests of all ages. For gatherings with friends and family around the bonfire, under a perfectly starry sky, the LV Volt and LV Diamonds collections will capture summer love for a lifetime.
