Louis Vuitton: Passion for Creation

This newly revised and updated edition is the definitive work on the collaborations between Louis Vuitton and artists, designers, architects, and photographers. The book now celebrates the most recent and inspiring collaborations with Nicolas Ghesquière, Frank Gehry, Yayoi Kusama, and Steven Meisel, among others, bringing the previous book up to the present. The more than eighty collaborators featured in this book comprise an A to Z of Vuitton’s creative collaborations from the last decade, with significant chapters devoted to the work of Nicolas Ghesquière, Marc Jacobs, Takashi Murakami and other key collaborators. This edition, now with 536 pages, features more than 130 pages of stunning new imagery showcasing the increasingly symbiotic relationship between fashion, art, and design. The period covered by the book—from the late 1990s through the present day—describes the role that Louis Vuitton is playing in a crucial moment in global fashion, never forgetting the long tradition of the house.
