There’s an art to travelling well, and more than that, there’s an art to travelling in style. The travel day outfit — whether it be for a long-haul flight or a cross-country train trip — is one of the most difficult to nail. You want to be comfortable but still look put together, as if you could hop off the plane and head straight to a meeting, or to dinner, or at the very least, walk through the hotel lobby without feeling completely underdressed.
It’s a conundrum Louis Vuitton has well and truly addressed with its latest collection for Autumn/Winter 2026, Flight Mode. Inspired by the train travel of yesteryear, where clothes were packed into leather trunks and stowed upon the Orient Express, Flight Mode taps into travel’s glamorous side.
A collection that spans ready-to-wear, footwear and accessories, Flight Mode leans into the relaxed silhouettes you want to wear while travelling: roomy pants crafted from supple leather, shearling-lined Colorado comfort Mary Jane shoes in Mahina suede and cosy, enveloping coats made from double-faced cashmere and belted duffle and peacoat versions made to be dressed up or down depending on the occasion.
The collection’s luggage offering is, naturally, the gem in Flight Mode’s crown. Revisiting some of Louis Vuitton’s most beloved styles, the collection imagines the iconic silhouettes as if they had been taken on a trip around the world themselves.
There’s the Low Key bag in grained calfskin, which gets a turn in versatile red and walnut shades; the Express Bag reimagined in a worn-in blue-hued monogram and the iconic Neverfull, which might be the best travel companion there could be.
Reimagined for the Flight Mode collection in the new Monogram Emblème canvas and two exclusive shades — Monogram Blue and Jura Green — the beloved Neverfull channels a worn-in feel, as if it’s been carted around the world and lived to tell the tale. Its generous size and roomy interior makes it ideal for packing with the essentials and climbing aboard, helping you travel in style long after you return home.
Louis Vuitton’s Flight Mode Collection is available to shop in boutiques and online.
