When it comes to highly valued travel antiques, the name Louis Vuitton comes up tops. Nearly two centuries serving as artisans and purveyors of luxury leather goods, their well-recognised LV monogram carriers are still prized collectables in the world of fashion and beyond. Once used as travel luggage, stashed in overhead compartments and under seats, now the Louis Vuitton steamer trunks are greatly sought after high-end accessories.
Currently on display in Asnières, just outside the city of Paris, step back in time and partake in the immersive experience of Louis Vuitton’s most famous creations. The Malle Courier Exhibition showcases the maison’s history and heritage at the stately Louis Vuitton Family House, where a gallery celebrates historic collections inspired by Louis’ Malle Courrier flat-surface trunk that was first made in 1858 for a limited time.
