Louis Vuitton celebrates its haute maroquinerie service with a worldwide launch event in Singapore this month. Kay Fong discovers the world of possibilities this bespoke service offers
PICK A SHADE OF PYTHON, THEN accent it with a precious stone such as agate. Or would you prefer a stunning piece of crocodilian leather, its beauty augmented by hand-painted strokes. Then, there are exquisite ostrich and lizard options for a classic appeal. And we haven’t even started on fur yet.
The journey of creating something that is truly unique, with access to an extensive range of rare skins and Louis Vuitton’s renowned savoir faire is part of the magic of its haute maroquinerie service. The maison’s origins lie in crafting bespoke trunks for its clientele of well-heeled bourgeoisie under the stewardship of its eponymous founder. While it continues to equip its jet-setting clients with customised trunks to accompany them on their travels, Louis Vuitton has also extended this tradition to its haute maroquinerie service, where its most exclusive customers are given the opportunity to add a touch of their own style and personality to the maison’s iconic bags.
