Louis Vuitton- Marc Jacobs Paris Exhibit

Louis Vuitton- Marc Jacobs is a story of two personalities and their contributions to the world of fashion: Louis Vuitton, founder of the house of Louis Vuitton in 1854, and Marc Jacobs, its artistic director since 1997. The parallel stories of Vuitton and Jacobs permit an in-depth look at the fashion industry during two decisive periods, one beginning with 19th century industrialization and the other peaking in 21st century globalization.

This exhibition devoted to both creators will showcase Louis Vuitton's trunks with the museum's 19th century fashion and accessory collection, and a selection of Marc Jacob's most emblematic designs, retracing the last 15 years of his career at Louis Vuitton.

The exhibit is set to open on March 9 at Les Arts Decoratifs in Paris.
