Louis Vuitton Catwalk, Book

Founded as a luxury leather goods house in 1854, Louis Vuitton was for many decades one of the world's leading manufacturers of trunks and accessories. However, it was after the launch of 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 exclusive publication begins with a concise history of the house, followed by brief biographical profiles of Marc Jacobs, the first creative director (1998-2014), and Nicolas Ghesquière, who leads the brand today, before exploring the collections themselves, organised chronologically. Each collection is presented with a short text that reveals its influences and highlights, and illustrated with carefully selected catwalk images.

Featuring hundreds of spectacular outfits, details, accessories, beauty looks and sets - and, of course, the top models who wore them on the catwalk, from Naomi Campbell and Gisele to Kate Moss and Cara Delevingne. A rich reference section, including an extensive index, concludes the book.
