The Louis Vuitton X exhibition in Los Angeles

If the world of fashion in general likes to embrace strong visual communication, the French maison Louis Vuitton is certainly not the last. To celebrate 160 years of creative richness, the brand created an exhibition at Los Angeles, 468 North Rodeo Drive, in the mythical Beverly Hills district. In this grandiose boutique, which looks like a casino or surrealist setting, almost worthy of Wes Andersonit is about 180 pieces more iconic one from the other that the French house has lent, straight out of its archives.

As you wander through these places, you will discover ten successive rooms, some with whimsical colors, others with brand graphics. Both like a temporary gallery and a curiosity cabinet, each space offers an immersive and unique universe, something to sincerely getting bogged down by Louis Vuitton's values for good. In addition, this place displays a pop-up store, located on the top floor, curated by Sarah Andelman, who is none other than the founder of the former Parisian concept store Colette.

A timeless place, a reflection of the spirit and the Californian style, supported with bright colors, palm trees and a girly atmosphere. A high-level creative association designed on the occasion of the exhibition Louis Vuitton X.

The other particularity of the exhibition, and which will undoubtedly delight connoisseurs, is the staging of pieces designed by internationally renowned artists such as Cindy Sherman, Franck Gehry, Karl Lagerfeld, Rei Kawakubo, Yayoi Kusama and Zaha Hadid. Reinterpreted by these key figures in the world of art, fashion and architecture, the famous leather bags with the brand's monograms have been carefully placed in the spotlight.

The latest collection of bags, Artycapucines, also has its place at the heart of the exhibition, sublimated on podiums with fluorescent lighting. Once again, the fashion house has called on the eyes of major contemporary artists, such as Alex Israel, Jonas Wood, Nicholas Hlobo, Sam Falls, Tschabalala Self and Urs Fischereach having drawn and appropriated the Vuitton spirit to create an exceptional piece.

From an architectural point of view, it is impossible to miss, first of all, the grandiose facade of the building, but also the scenography of many of the rooms - if not all of them - like for example this incredible space that seems pixelated and disintegrates as we move. Also noteworthy is this retro gallery where the gala dresses that have been worn by the greatest actresses and fashion figures are exhibited... A warning to amateurs and connoisseurs!
