“For Louis Vuitton, the idea of traveling is fundamental,” he explained. “At Vuitton we’re working on this luggage icon, one with no archive of clothes,” Jacobs said in 2000. “It’s fun to keep bringing something fresh, and the way to do that is by bringing in fresh people.”Kim Jones took up the reins on the menswear side in 2011 and held the title of artistic director until 2018.
On 14 April 2021, Louis Vuitton lost a patent office case in Japan against a Japanese manufacturer.[56] The manufacturer was using centuries old Japanese designs in its goods, the same ones that had originally inspired Louis Vuitton. The Sarah wallet design in particular resembles bag designs[57] that have been used for centuries to contain juzu (strings of beads used in funeral ceremonies – see Japamala#Japanese Buddhism). There has been comment on Japanese social media concerning how the company management seems to have forgotten the origins of Louis Vuitton’s designs.

After the death of his father, Georges Vuitton began a campaign to build the company into a worldwide corporation, exhibiting the company’s products at the Chicago World’s Fair in 1893.
Some have sworn never to buy from Louis Vuitton again, saying that the shirt extends a troubling track record for the brand that includes its founding family’s material support for Nazi collaborators in France during the Second World War. Tyler, the Creator’s capsule collection is an extension of Pharrell Williams’ vision as the men’s creative director, a role to which he was appointed in February 2023 following the death of Virgil Abloh. The capsule collection is evocative of the union between Tyler, the Creator’s quintessential preppy sophistication and the elegance established by Williams. Chinos, golf sweaters, and bucket hats reinforce the capsule collection’s ivy inclinations, along with statement accessories monogrammed golf bags and even a chess set designed to Tyler’s own specifications. The frenzy over the patches is not the first time Louis Vuitton has found itself as a sartorial flashpoint of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
For six consecutive years (2006–2012), Louis Vuitton was named the world’s most valuable luxury brand. Its 2012 valuation was US$25.9 billion.[7] In 2013, the valuation of the brand was US$28.4 billion with revenue of US$9.4 billion.[8] The company operates in 50 countries with more than 460 stores worldwide.[9] It is a subsidiary of LVMH. The watermelon has long been used as a symbol of resistance by Palestinians and has witnessed an uptick in popularity in recent months by social media users who use the emoji to indicate their support for Palestine. The transparent dial and case were designed to allow the watch’s mechanism, which was made from rose gold and rhodium-plated steel, to be on full display. Good things happen when Tyler, the Creator and Pharell Williams get together. After curating the soundtrack for the Louis Vuitton Fall/Winter 2023 show last year and teaming up with Williams for a limited-edition nail polish for their respective skincare lines, Tyler’s Spring 2024 LV capsule collection is here.
Traditionally, trunks were made with dome-shaped tops, which allowed rain and mud to roll off as luggage was transported on the backs of stagecoaches. Vuitton, noticing the main modes of traveling were becoming the train and ocean liner, produced the flat lid for easier stacking and shipping. He also replaced the leather, which was heavy and often cracked, with lightweight wood covered in Trianon gray canvas, a fabric Vuitton designed to be waterproof and stain resistant. Across his range of endeavors, whether it be fashion or music, Pharrell Williams is no stranger to enlisting the help of his friends. So by bringing in Tyler, the Creator, the collection marks William’s first menswear partnership as LV’s creative director and Tyler, the Creator’s first-ever collaboration with the luxury house.
For some people paying close attention to the discourse, the dustup is unsurprising given the state of the war, but also confounding. Lizzy Savetsky, a Jewish influencer in New York City who debuted an Israeli-flag parody of the shirt on her Instagram account, said she was taken aback by the design of the Louis Vuitton shirt — and by the company’s decision to keep it on sale. Every time I clicked on “Remove” it would ask to confirm, so I clicked on “Confirm,” it removed instantly, but then the “Proceed to Check Out” button suddenly reappear and the Cart icon has “1” next to it.
