Louis Vuitton<\/span><\/a> marked the <\/span>2026 Australian Open<\/span><\/a> women\u2019s and men\u2019s finals by presenting both trophies in bespoke Louis Vuitton trunks, continuing the Maison\u2019s long running sports trophy program tied to its \u2018Victory travels in Louis Vuitton\u2019 positioning.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Story This Signals<\/b><\/h3>\n

LVMH framed the moment as Louis Vuitton \u2018once again\u2019 celebrating sporting excellence at the finals, and the receipts are in the brand\u2019s own trophy trunk roster this season. Louis Vuitton has positioned its trunks as part of the ceremony for top tier properties, including Formula 1<\/a> and the Ballon d\u2019Or<\/a>, with bespoke cases designed to be on stage and on camera, not just backstage logistics. That\u2019s the playbook now: engineered visibility where the trunk sits at the intersection of broadcast ceremony and collectible craft, so the brand is literally in the hero shot when the trophy is lifted.<\/p>\n

The Trunks and Their Build<\/b><\/h3>\n

According to LVMH\u2019s description, both trunks were handcrafted<\/a> at Louis Vuitton\u2019s historic Asni\u00e8res workshops and used to carry and protect the Daphne Akhurst Memorial Cup and the Norman Brookes Memorial Cup throughout the tournament. The trunks are finished in Louis Vuitton Monogram canvas with brass locks, corners, and clasps said to match hardware used since the 1860s, plus a white \u2018V\u2019 motif. Inside, LVMH notes a microfiber lining in Australian Open blue, with the AO logo in white on the inside cover.<\/span><\/p>\n

Who Presented and who Won<\/b><\/h3>\n

Elena Rybakina won the women\u2019s final over Aryna Sabalenka, with the trophy trunk presented by House Ambassador BamBam and tennis legend Jennifer Capriati<\/a>. For the men\u2019s final, Carlos Alcaraz<\/a> won against Novak Djokovic<\/a>, with the trunk presented by House Ambassador Chlo\u00eb Grace Moretz<\/a> and tennis legend Marat Safin<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Context From Design Media<\/b><\/h3>\n

Wallpaper adds historical context to the Louis Vuitton trunk, pointing back to the brand\u2019s early travel-trunk innovations and tracking the evolution into ceremonial \u2018trophy trunks\u2019 used for modern sport. It also reiterates the Asni\u00e8res production story and details around the trunks\u2019 materials, hardware, and \u2018AO blue\u2019 interior, while placing the Australian Open trunks within Louis Vuitton\u2019s broader set of sports partnerships.<\/span><\/p>\n

For tennis fans and collectors, the takeaway is simple: Louis Vuitton is treating the trophy moment as a design product in itself, using craft details and ceremony staging to keep the brand in the center frame when the sport\u2019s biggest prizes are handed over.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Louis Vuitton marked the 2026 Australian Open women\u2019s and men\u2019s finals by presenting both trophies in bespoke Louis…","protected":false},"author":219894228,"featured_media":22160,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_crdt_document":"","pad_hide_post_author":"","csco_display_header_overlay":false,"csco_singular_sidebar":"","csco_page_header_type":"","csco_page_load_nextpost":"","csco_post_video_location":[],"csco_post_video_location_hash":"","csco_post_video_url":"","csco_post_video_bg_start_time":0,"csco_post_video_bg_end_time":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[1455],"tags":[2943,2893,2518],"class_list":{"0":"post-22158","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-sports","8":"tag-australian-open","9":"tag-australian-open-2026","10":"tag-lvmh","11":"cs-entry","12":"cs-video-wrap"},"yoast_head":"\nLouis Vuitton Presents the 2026 Australian Open Trophies in Iconic Trunks<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/footwearmagazine.com\/?p=22158\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Louis Vuitton Presents the 2026 Australian Open Trophies in Iconic Trunks\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Louis Vuitton marked the 2026 Australian Open women\u2019s and men\u2019s finals by presenting both trophies in bespoke Louis…\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/footwearmagazine.com\/?p=22158\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Footwear Magazine\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/footwearmagazine\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2026-02-10T15:26:04+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2026-02-10T20:05:33+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/footwearmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/1qbmwihr.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"1600\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"900\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Alyssa J.
