For over 150 years, Louis Vuitton's monographed bags have been
associated with style and luxury. Born in 1821, he had left home at
13 to seek his fortune in Paris where he became an apprentice
box-maker which eventually led him to introductions at the French
Royal Court. With royal endorsement, Louis opened of his first
workshop in 1854 where his skills and innovations established his
brand as one of Europe's most popular. Passing his passion for
crafting beautiful luggage onto his son, Georges, and later his
grandson Gaston-Louis, they ensured the company continued to grow,
surviving two world wars, to become the luxury brand it's renowned
for. Louis Vuitton stores opened in cities throughout the world and
expanded into other high-end brands. The merger in 1987 with Möet
Hennessy created the megabrand LVMH, and in 1997 the appointment of
Marc Jacobs launched Louis Vuitton into the world of fashion. "The
Louis Vuitton woman is more about a quality - a quality within some
women that needs to come forward, to be noticed and recognised."
Marc Jacobs "There's a lot of baggage that comes along with our
family, but it's like Louis Vuitton baggage." Kim Kardashian
"Luxury must be comfortable, otherwise it is not luxury." Louis
