The Journey of Excellence

Founded in 1854 as a trunk-making workshop, Louis Vuitton pioneered luxury travel goods with innovative designs and exceptional craftsmanship. The iconic monogram canvas, introduced in 1896, became one of the world's most recognized luxury symbols.

From its origins as a malletier (trunk maker) to becoming a global luxury empire, Louis Vuitton has consistently pushed the boundaries of fashion, leather goods, and craftsmanship. The house combines heritage techniques with contemporary innovation.

Under Nicolas Ghesquiere's creative direction since 2013, Louis Vuitton's women's fashion collections blend architectural precision with romantic femininity, continuing the house's tradition of excellence while embracing modernity.
