Founded as a luxury leather goods house in 1854, Louis Vuitton was for many decades one of the world’s leading makers of accessories and finery. However, after launching its first fashion collections in 1998, the house achieved unprecedented global fame, and pioneered high-profile collaborations with the likes of Richard Prince, Takashi Murakami and Stephen Sprouse. Louis Vuitton Catwalk is a comprehensive and unrivalled overview of the world’s greatest fashion house. The book begins with a concise history of the House, followed by brief biographical profiles of Marc Jacobs, the first creative director from 1998 to 2014, and Nicolas Ghesquiere, who leads the brand today, before exploring the collections, organised chronologically. Each collection is introduced by a short text revealing its influences and highlights, and illustrated with carefully selected catwalk images. Showcasing hundreds of spectacular clothes, details, accessories, beauty looks and set designs, and, of course, the leading fashion 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.
