🍒 The Ultimate Guide to the LV x Takashi Murakami Cerises / Cherry Collection 2025

Louis Vuitton’s Cerises Collection officially launched online in May 2025 across major markets including the U.S., Canada, Europe, and Asia. This is one of the most anticipated releases following the Multicolore Monogram in January and Cherry Blossoms in March.  

However, some enthusiasts managed to secure their items before the public release. According to discussions on PurseForum, early access was granted to select clients who had established relationships with Louis Vuitton sales associates (SAs) or were part of the brand's Very Important Client (VIC) program.

a. Build a Relationship with an SA: Regular interactions and purchases can position you for early access and pre-sales in future releases.

b. Join Online Communities: Platforms like Reddit's r/handbags and PurseForum offer real-time updates, member experiences, and tips on securing limited editions. PurseForum+14Reddit+14Fifth Avenue Girl+14

c. Act Quickly: Limited releases like this sell out fast. Being prepared to purchase as soon as items go live increases your chances of success. Some website stalking may be necessary in some cases.
