Kim Jones, responsible for Louis Vuitton 's menswear line, has already recruited his buddies Jake and Dinos Chapman to collaborate. The brothers are famous for their harsh art statements (it costs them nothing to place genitals on the faces of mannequins or take Adolf Hitler's watercolors as a basis for their work), but then, in 2013, the British "lowered the degree" - and the sweetest sweater with a snow leopard, wild but cute. And at the same time, and in a good way, the crazy print of Garden in Hell, which included a couple of outlandish creatures.
In 2017, they decided to expand this fantasy menagerie - and the brothers again took up paints. Instead of linen - accessories: bags, backpacks and even a purse. Instead of a frost-resistant leopard - a giraffe, accustomed to completely different, high temperatures (just like in Gumilyov's poems, graceful harmony and bliss is given to him), a rhinoceros, an elephant, a zebra and a lion.

In general, the choice fell on the inhabitants of the savannah not by chance: the collection of the spring-summer season, creative director Jones dedicated to hot Africa. True, he explained that the southern continent had an unusual neighborhood - with England, or rather, its capital: we say "London" - we mean "punk". And the Chapman beasts, with their by no means canonical appearance and crazy eyes, quite fit into the ranks of the rebels - even if they come from the subequatorial belt.>
