BAG TO THE FUTURE

...where high fashion meets high tech

Portrait of Tammy Strobel

Ring, ring, your bag’s calling! Yes, you heard right. Your Speedy just WhatsApped you. Witness the new player in town that ups the tech game: Louis Vuitton’s Canvas of the Future, featuring built-in flexible display screens by Shenzhen-based bendable screen manufacturer Royole. Showcased on iconic styles such as the Speedy and Duffle at the Maison’s cruise 2020 runway show in New York, the futuristic creation lets you surf the Net, answer a text and even take a FaceTime call with a simple tap of the screen— putting a whole new spin on a bag of tricks. ■

The Canvas of the Future Speedy bag is available at Louis Vuitton (Tel: 6788 3888).
