Rimowa is no stranger to the art of collaboration, having previously linked up with the likes of Palace, Tiffany & Co., Adidas, and Porsche. Now, the German luxury luggage brand has teamed up with American lifestyle brand Aimé Leon Dore to create a two piece capsule collection that celebrates the golden age of travel.
The collaboration saw Aimé Leon Dore draw inspiration from Rimowa’s pioneering attitude and role in travel culture during the early 20th century. Each piece is suffused with a sense of romanticism, nodding to Rimowa’s storied heritage while toasting to Aimé Leon Dore’s indelible mark on culture at large.
The collaborative collection comprises a Rimowa x Aimé Leon Dore Chest and Rimowa & Aimé Leon Dore Cabin. Each piece is handcrafted in Germany with Rimowa’s instantly recognisable grooved aluminium construction and executed in Aimé Leon Dore’s signature shade of bottle green. Touches such as gold-plated hardware and brown leather handles as well as a co-branded leather luggage tag further elevate the pieces.
Inside, both the Rimowa x Aimé Leon Dore Chest and Cabin are lined with durable nylon printed with a pattern of ancient Greek stamp iconography, designed by Aimé Leon Dore for the collaboration.
The Rimowa x Aimé Leon Dore Cabin is priced at $3920AUD and the Chest is $5690AUD.
