It is difficult to imagine that after surviving the battle with time, passing through the curtain of dust, gunpowder and human dramas of two world warriors, the French house of Louis Vuitton, still remains the object of the unquenchable passion of all avid fashioners.
Louis Vuitton - story of a fashion house
Zero kilometer in the history of the founding of the brand is considered to be the French region of Frank-Comte, where in 1821 the future legend of the world fashion was born - Louis Vuitton. His short childhood he spent in the carpentry workshop of his father, from which he inherited wood craft. And when he turned 14, very young Louis went to conquer Paris.
His walking wanderings of 400 km in length led him to the capital, where he became an assistant to the master of making chests. Soon, the glory of him (not without the help of Empress Eugenia) spread throughout France, and in 1854 his own personal brand Louis Vuitton was founded.
The Louis Vuitton Revolution
In the distant 1858 Louis Vuitton made his first revolution in the "suitcase world". Even on smaller scales than the French one, she turned on her head - or rather, all the suitcases of that time from one side to the other. For the first time appeared light, comfortable, rectangular, and even opened suitcase. And the French with a calm heart threw out their old, round, cumbersome travel trunks, which is not something to carry in their hands, and even transport was uncomfortable.
Louis Vuitton Logo
The glory of Louis Witton quickly spread, causing envy and resentment from competitors. In order to prevent the tasteless imitation of their products, Witton decided to paint the products in a well-known to this day beige-brown color. But the picture, made of LV monograms, that has become classic, will appear only after the death of the master - the author will be the son of maestro Georges Witton.
Louis Vuitton Handbags
Since 1896, bags with monogram ornamentation have become the hallmark of the fashion house and continued their imperial procession already in 33 different colors. Thus, among the infinite army of models, at the crossroads of two world wars, in 1932 - appeared, already become a legend, - the Speedy bag. It was light, laconic and immensely convenient. In the vastness of various colors, sizes and stylistic variations, there was probably no such girl who would not have approached her. And even if Grace Kelly was a fan of the Hermes house, then such a star as Audrey Hepburn never changed Speedy. After all, Speedy bag turned into a true symbol of urban luxury, and someone even said that it "is able to accommodate all women's dreams."
Clothing, Shoes & Accessories Louis Vuitton
Starting its way "on suitcases", the Luois Vuitton brand has become today a real fashionable empire. Ten years later, the art director of the house became Mark Jacobs. Under his leadership, the first pret-a-porte collection was released, which managed to combine not only bags, but also men's and women's clothing, jewelry, shoes and even watches.
Louis Vuitton Collection
Today the Louis Vuitton brand continues its confident conquest of the fashionable peaks, presenting more and more new collections. And if last season was strewn from head to foot with a polka-dot pattern, then the present one is ready to fight us in the great chess battle. In the concept of Louis Vuitton 2013 there are clear shapes and color contrast. Mark Jacobs, chief designer and creative director of the house all the same crossed the line, and to be more precise - the strip, returned it from the 90's and turned it into an interesting checkered pattern. The black and white tranquility was diluted with canary yellow, and to support the idea of mirror geometry, in the Spring-Summer 2013 show the decorations exactly reproduced the chess pattern presented on the models.
The style of Louis Vuitton is synonymous with luxury, his creations are masterpiece, and the quality is impeccable. You can not find it either in Duty Free, or at a sale. Fashion house Louis Vuitton does not bargain and does not discount, because the real stars place in the sky, somewhere high above the level of fashion.
