From plane bag to pooch bag: 5 unique bags from Louis Vuitton that every LV lover must own

Louis Vuitton is not just a luxury brand; it’s a legacy of craftsmanship, imagination, and constant reinvention. While the Neverfull and Speedy remain icons in their own right, the French maison has recently taken a delightful detour - reimagining the everyday handbag into playful, collectible pieces that are anything but ordinary.

Thanks to the vision of creative geniuses like Virgil Abloh and Pharrell Williams, Louis Vuitton has entered a whimsical era of design, where bags resemble animals, objects, and pure artistic fantasy. These designs may not always be practical, but their statement value is unmatched and their craftsmanship remains second to none.

Here are five unique Louis Vuitton bags every LV enthusiast needs on their fashion radar each one a fusion of fantasy, form, and flawless detailing.

Louis Vuitton once again blurred the line between high fashion and high fantasy with the debut of its now-viral Lobster Bag at Paris Fashion Week. A standout piece from the house’s Fall/Winter 2025 collection, the design comes from the collaborative genius of Pharrell Williams, Louis Vuitton’s menswear creative director, and NIGO, bringing playful surrealism to luxury accessories.

Crafted from premium Vachetta leather and finished with the brand’s iconic Monogram canvas, the bag is sculpted into the form of a lobster, complete with detailed pincers, antennae, and articulated legs. The meticulous attention to detail turns this accessory into a wearable work of art that’s equal parts whimsical and luxe.

The crustacean theme isn’t limited to the bag alone. Smaller lobster-shaped charms have been spotted throughout the collection, adding a consistent touch of eccentricity across LV’s accessories lineup. Though yet to hit the shelves, the Lobster Bag is rumoured to retail for approximately INR 15,36,853, solidifying its place as both a conversation piece and a collector’s gem.

Another standout from Pharrell’s imaginative LV debut, the Dolphin Bag showcases the meticulous skill of the brand’s artisans. Rendered in Monogram coated canvas, this collectible piece is shaped like a dolphin, complete with aged-leather-coloured trim, pearl eyes, and a shimmering LV metallic pearl zip-pull.

What makes this piece especially desirable is the blend of luxury craftsmanship and pure whimsy. Despite its playful appearance, the detailing is exquisite. While small in size, it holds just a smartphone and two cardholders, the Dolphin Bag is a prime example of fashion with a sense of humour.

Priced at INR 4,75,000, it’s not just a bag, but a celebration of imagination brought to life through impeccable design.

A runway moment turned fashion legend, the Plane Bag was introduced by the late Virgil Abloh for Louis Vuitton’s Fall/Winter 2021 menswear collection. Crafted entirely in Monogram canvas, it’s shaped, quite literally - like an airplane, complete with leather wings, tail, and propellers.

Though it raised eyebrows for being one of the most impractical designs Louis Vuitton has ever launched, the Plane Bag isn't about functionality - it's about fantasy. It represents Abloh’s fearless vision of mixing streetwear irreverence with high fashion luxury.

With a staggering price tag of over INR 33 lakh, the Plane Bag has transcended novelty status to become a cult collector’s piece. It gained even more attention after Chris Brown posted his own version online, helping cement its place as a pop culture artefact.

Introduced during Pharrell Williams’ first collection as Louis Vuitton’s Menswear Creative Director, the Pooch Bag is as adorable as it is luxurious. Composed of Monogram canvas and detailed with aged-natural-leather trim, the bag is shaped like a small dog, complete with top handles for hand-carrying and an adjustable strap for crossbody use.

The design balances high-end materials with a sense of fun. Featuring rolled-leather handles and Pharrell’s personal touch with an LV Lovers name tag, it turns an everyday accessory into a collectible work of art.

Retailing at INR 4,70,000, the Pooch Bag is ideal for collectors who want to make a cheeky yet chic statement with their luxury pieces.

Louis Vuitton Koi Fish Backpack for Men’s Spring/Summer 2022 by Virgil Abloh. The price of this backpack is not known. Koi fish are colourful, ornamental varieties of carp, typically kept in ponds or water gardens. They are a popular choice for their beauty and symbolic meaning in many cultures, especially in Japan and hence the possible reference.

In the ever-evolving world of luxury fashion, Louis Vuitton continues to stay ahead of the curve - not just by setting trends, but by challenging expectations. These five bags - bold, bizarre, beautiful, highlight the brand’s unshakeable commitment to craft and innovation.

Whether you’re into conversation-starting art pieces or crave a bag that brings a smile with every glance, these unique LV designs show that luxury doesn’t have to be serious. It can be light, charming, and unapologetically expressive.

Because at the end of the day, fashion is meant to be fun and Louis Vuitton knows exactly how to deliver it.
