July 31st, 2024
One year after the inauguration of the first Louis Vuitton store on the eastern coast of Sicily, in the pearl of the Ionian Sea, Louis Vuitton returns to Taormina to announce the opening of Le Bar Louis Vuitton, an idyllic terrace overlooking the Mediterranean, the ultimate expression of Louis Vuitton's lifestyle. Louis Vuitton's first Sky Bar is tinged with shades of blue and warm whites, inspired by the colors of the Mediterranean, offering the opportunity to enjoy a gourmet aperitif with regional delicacies. The rooftop terrace of the historic building, which also houses the Louis Vuitton store, has a dedicated entrance where Louis Vuitton codes blend with the typical Sicilian aesthetic. Wooden and rope seating surrounds the tables made of glass-enamelled lava stone, paying homage to the sea of the Taormina coast, creating a continuum between the set-up spaces and the surrounding landscape; straw and metal lamps, typical local plants, and Object Nomades furnishings characterize Le Bar Louis Vuitton, an elegant and sophisticated oasis that can transport the visitor into the world of Louis Vuitton for a relaxing break, amidst the colors and scents of the Italian summer. For those spending their holidays in Taormina, both the store and Le Bar Louis Vuitton are a must-visit destination to discover the perfect harmony between the Maison and the spirit of the territory.
On the tables of Le Bar, you can find the new Art De La Table porcelain: the Maison's permanent collection, now available in beige tones. The new color palette celebrates the iconic Louis Vuitton Monogram flower with a contemporary touch, finely intertwining classic and modern styles. Among the new in-store items, the exclusive limited edition of the famous Tote OnTheGO bag from Taormina in natural raffia, a version of the iconic model available only in the store. Completing the Maison's summer novelties, an exclusive Collection of Guides invites you to discover unexpected places and must-see destinations in the most prestigious Italian summer locations, including Taormina. Special editions signed by Louis Vuitton, unique in their kind, represent the fusion of the Maison's editorial universes, dedicated to travel. The edition is presented as a treasure chest, bright yellow for Taormina, containing ten wonderful postcards illustrated with drawings by French illustrator Audrey Spiry and a series of unmissable curiosities and tips, such as music recommendations, films to watch, and suggestions for "must-have" emblematic objects and where to find them, such as the coppola or the Taormina coffa.
