萬寶龍之前為了慶祝與Maison Kitsuné推出聯名款設計，在巴黎舉辦了一場上市派對。當天有凱薩獎得主Pierre Niney、音樂製作人MATVEЇ、義大利創業家Carlo Sestini、英國時尚部落客Susie Lau和荷蘭時尚部落客Linda Tol等人共襄盛舉。
這個聯名系列是將萬寶龍皮件的經典線條融入Kitsuné的生活藝術(Art de Vivre)，重新詮釋經典Camo Fox 狐狸印花，僅在全球11個國家限量上市。身為東方寶島的台灣當也不會錯過這場盛事，品牌好友吳映潔、李玉璽、人氣樂團茄子蛋等多位新生代音樂人都是萬寶龍邀請來搶先演繹的精緻率性人物。
萬寶龍行銷執行副總裁Vincent Montalescot表示：「匯聚兩個擁有不同起源、故事與哲學但又互補的品牌，讓這次合作充滿活力又令人期待。藉由這次合作，我們創造了一種全新獨特、原創的Art de Vivre生活藝術風格，結合Maison Kitsuné的自我表達、創造力與趣味，以及萬寶龍作為奢華商務生活風格品牌的熱情、決心與精神。」
