Gone Dotty

Yayoi Kusama and Louis Vuitton have come together for a dotty collaboration. Currently Selfridge's has been taken over by the artist, with all the shop windows, a concept store and a giant 13ft statue of her above the front door and the store flying flags on the roof for the duo. They have designed a collection of shoes, bags, purses, scarves and clothing. http://kusama.selfridges.com/?cm_-_HP_-_hero1CTA_-_Kusama
