Infiniti, Nissan’s re-badged luxury brand, has announced its collaboration with Louis Vuitton for the creation of a bespoke set of luggage for a concept car to be revealed at the 2009 International Geneva Motor Show next month.

The dramatic concept will be a celebration of Infiniti and its 20 years history as a creator of performance cars. But equally it will be an inspiring exploration into the brand’s future.

For Louis Vuitton, this collaboration is the latest in a long heritage of designing custom luggage for special automobiles.

In the lead up to the concept’s unveiling, Infiniti design boss Shiro Nakamura was invited to one of the luxury label’s stores in Roppongi, Tokyo, where he was presented with one of the pieces from the luggage set.

This partnership is the latest in a line of luxury label collaborations with car marques, including Hermes and Bugatti, Versace and Lamborghini, and Dunhill and Bentley.
