Volez, Voguez, Voyagez - Louis Vuitton

1/31/2016

Louis Vuitton, one of the world's leading international fashion houses and most valuable luxury brands, presents the exhibition “Volez, Voguez, Voyagez - Louis Vuitton” at the Grand Palais, Paris, which retraces Louis Vuitton’s great journey from 1854 till today.

The Louis Vuitton label was founded in 1854 on Rue Neuve des Capucines in Paris, France, which introduced the first flat-bottom trunks with Trianon canvas, making them lightweight and airtight that allowed the ability to stack with ease for voyages.

One of the most fascinating parts of the exhibition is the decorations and installations are inspired by Louis Vuitton's past and present collections, which makes it feel like a time tunnel that travels from the past to the future. Let's continue to break it down for y'all!

This section of the exhibition was decorated as in a cabin of a moving train which reminds us Louis Vuitton's advertising campaigns of Fall/Winter 2012

The avion scene is a deja-vu of the 2010 advertising campaign featuring Bono and his wife Ali Hewson.

The theme of this section is "Celebrities' Life", it manifests glamour Hollywood celebrities traveling with Louis Vuitton trunks, cosmetic cases and costumes which seems to be a beautiful reflection of Fall/Winter 2010 collection.

This desert venue at the exhibition makes the Spring/Summer 2004 advertising campaigns come alive!

And there's also a section to demonstrates the delicate craftsmanship of Louis Vuitton.

Since we attended the Louis Vuitton exhibition in Paris, we certainly couldn't miss to visit Louis Vuitton Foundation in the 16th arrondissement of Paris. Louis Vuitton Foundation is an art museum and cultural center sponsored by the group LVMH, the unique asymmetry building was designed by the architect Frank Gehry, started in 2006 and has been completed and opened in October 2014.
