Louis Vuitton Joins Formula 1: A Fusion of Luxury and Motorsport Excellence
In a move that merges high fashion with high-speed racing, Louis Vuitton is officially stepping into the fast lane as an Official Partner of Formula 1, beginning in 2025. This marks a major milestone, not just for the sport but for luxury branding in motorsports.
The Ultimate Power Play: Luxury Meets Speed
As part of a 10-year partnership between LVMH and Formula 1, Louis Vuitton will take center stage at some of the sport’s most prestigious moments. The partnership kicks off in grand style with the FORMULA 1® LOUIS VUITTON AUSTRALIAN GRAND PRIX 2025, where the brand will serve as Title Partner for the season opener in Melbourne.
This isn’t just about logo placements—Louis Vuitton will have trackside branding, a first for the fashion house in any sporting event, and will be deeply embedded in F1’s most celebrated moments. Expect to see their iconic Trophy Trunks on the podium, each adorned with the signature LV Monogram and a locally inspired “V” motif, elevating the championship celebrations with a touch of Parisian luxury.
From Monaco to the World Stage
Louis Vuitton has already built a strong association with Formula 1 through its partnership with the Monaco Grand Prix (2021-2024), where it designed the first-ever Trophy Trunk for the legendary race. This collaboration set the stage for an even deeper connection, with Louis Vuitton’s craftsmanship now becoming an enduring symbol of F1 victory.
Beyond motorsport, the brand has been involved in crafting trophy trunks for football, sailing, and even the Olympics, reinforcing its position as the luxury standard for global sports excellence.
The Future of Formula 1’s Luxury Evolution
Louis Vuitton’s partnership is part of a broader LVMH-Formula 1 alliance, highlighting the growing convergence of fashion, culture, entertainment, and sports. As F1 continues to expand its reach beyond the racetrack—into pop culture, lifestyle, and luxury markets—this partnership signals a new era where performance and prestige go hand in hand.
From the grid to the podium, Louis Vuitton is bringing its heritage of craftsmanship, exclusivity, and timeless elegance to a sport that defines speed, innovation, and global appeal.
So the question is: What’s next? Could we see Louis Vuitton racing suits? Pit lane accessories? A luxury hospitality experience like no other?
One thing’s for sure—Formula 1 just got a little more fashionable.
