A guide for this piece: about $116, based on the 10% US charge on the declared value of goods made in Japan.
The final figure is set by US Customs and depends on where the piece was made and the kind of object it is. Many antiques over a century old carry no ordinary duty; most jewellery and leather goods add a single-digit rate.
With EMS, any charge is collected by your postal service on delivery. For pieces of significant value we can often arrange duties prepaid before dispatch.

A Flower in the Net
Nets and flowers are two of Kusama's oldest subjects. Woven together in one cloth, the flower seems to grow out of the pattern behind it.

A short flared skirt from the Louis Vuitton x Yayoi Kusama collaboration, woven in black and white with a web of fine lines and one large dotted flower blooming across the front panel. Reference FOSK18, size 36, with its belt and tag.
The Piece
The ground is a jacquard of irregular cells, close to the nets Kusama has painted since the 1950s, and the flower is woven into it at a scale that fills a third of the skirt. A metallic thread gives the lines a faint light.
A ribbed waistband carries a narrow belt tipped with a Monogram plate, and the back zip has a clear LV pull.

Authenticity & Care
An authentic Louis Vuitton piece from the house's collaboration with Yayoi Kusama; the joint signature and maker's marks appear in the photographs. Our curators check every detail in Japan before dispatch. Follow the care label, which advises gentle dry cleaning, and store away from sunlight.
Delivery from Japan
The garment is packed by hand in Japan, folded flat in tissue. Shipping is quoted and agreed with you before purchase, weighing EMS, then FedEx, then air cargo, all insured and tracked. Duties and taxes, where applicable, are payable on arrival. Every sale is final; please ask anything you wish to know before you buy, and see our published policy.
Every figure above is taken by hand, in centimetres, and Japanese labels often run a size smaller than Western ones. Compare with a piece you already own and allow a little margin, the quiet safeguard on a final sale. Our size conversion guide sets Japanese sizes beside US, UK, EU and Asian ones, and for anything it leaves open the curator team replies within one Tokyo business day.
Considered offers are welcome through Send an Offer, and each one is reviewed personally. See more from Yayoi Kusama, or browse what has just arrived.
