Louis Vuitton - Catwalk

Founded as a luxury leather goods house in 1854, Louis Vuitton was one of the world's leading luggage and accessories manufacturers for many decades. However, it was after launching its first fashion collections in 1998 that the house achieved unprecedented global fame, pioneering high-profile collaborations with artists such as Richard Prince, Takashi Murakami and Stephen Sprouse. This definitive release opens with a concise history of the house, followed by brief biographical profiles of Marc Jacobs, the first creative director 1998-2014, and Nicolas Ghesquiere, who strengthens the brand today, before exploring the collections themselves, organized chronologically. Each collection is introduced by a short text revealing its influence and highlights, and illustrated with carefully curated catwalk images. Showcasing hundreds of spectacular garments, details, accessories, beauty looks and set designs - and of course the top fashion models who wore them on the runway, from Naomi Campbell and Gisele to Kate
