THE FUSE

Louis Vuitton is one of, if not the, biggest fashion houses in the world, and they’re never ones to do anything halfway. Prime example: When their classic 5th Avenue and 57th Street flagship store in Manhattan went under renovation, a simple tarp over scaffolding wouldn’t do. They meticulously recreated a Monogram trunk over the construction, turning a work in progress into art, and proving their classic LV Monogram pattern not only looks great blown up onto a skyscraper, but that their visual language does a lot of talking for them. It’s a pivotal moment for the brand, not only with a new store on the way for New Yorkers, but the biggest pattern in fashion is celebrating an anniversary.
