Louis Vuitton: The Birth of Modern Luxury - Paul-Gerard Pasols (Book)


'Louis Vuitton: The Birth of Modern Luxury'
by Paul-Gerard Pasols


 This is the book about Louis Vuitton that is a must-have for anyone interested in anything LV.


Including but not limited to the history of the company, all types and styles of trunks, vintage and modern design, and manufacture. The book spans the time from Pierre Vuitton in 15th Century France to the present Louis Vuitton Moet Hennesy Empire (LVMH) and Vuitton's role as a giant in current fashion design.


The illustrations in this beautiful book are rich and plentiful with many being in full color. Aristocracy, politicians, movie stars, and the just plain rich and famous are included here. Scenes from around the world abound throughout with LV pieces being dragged from one corner of the Earth to the other as part of a voyage, expedition, or fashion shoot.
