Is Louis Vuitton X Takashi Murakami Returning In 2026? New Rumors Just Dropped

At the end of last year, Louis Vuitton announced the 20th-anniversary celebration of its famed Takashi Murakami collection with a fresh, three-chapter relaunch. The rollout brought back some of the most coveted collaboration bags of all time. And now, if you missed those drops—or simply want more—the rumor mill is swirling again. Early intel suggests that Louis Vuitton x Murakami may officially return in 2026.

Here’s What We Know So Far about LV x TM

As always, the PurseForum is where I go for the latest intel. Members often hear directly from their SAs and other LV sources, and this time, news of a possible 2026 return comes from well-known LV insider @mattd74.

According to the early details he shared, the collection may include:

• Multicolor baseball hat

• January launch of a new Louis Vuitton x Murakami drop

• Speedy 30 Soft in white

• Chain belt with white pouch

• LV Vivienne multicolor charms

• Ski mask with Murakami band

Fans are already speculating about potential additions, including the return of the beloved Pink Cherry Blossom print. Others think Louis Vuitton may switch up the original palette—possibly reversing the iconic Multicolor scheme (white becomes black and vice versa).

Of course, all of this remains in rumor territory for now, but historically, where there’s chatter, there’s often truth. I’ll keep you updated as more information trickles in.

To follow along on the PurseForum, here is the almost 1,300-page thread on the first release, and here is the fresh thread for 2026 Louis Vuitton x Murakami intel.
