Now with fresh information on subjects such as designs for ready-to-wear clothing, shoes, jewelry, and even automobiles, this revised edition includes 20 additional pages and updated material throughout the book, covering the brand’s recent history, with new text and photographs. This book is a work of art, perfect for displaying and gifting. Review: One of The World's Most Iconic Brands - A Complete Study - Purchased this book for my girlfriend as Christmas gift. She loves fashion be it clothes, shoes, jewelry or purses. She burst into tears of joy when she opened this book as her gift because firstly, she was overwhelmed by the thoughtfulness of a book that embodied her passions and secondly, she the content was so comprehensive with history and photos of an iconic fashion. She's still gushing over this gift and recently texted me stating "This was a home run!" (Hey guys, are you jealous of my gal?) This is a heavy book and the desertcart box was larger than the book which means it could have shifted in the box causing damage during shipment... mine was just fine however, you may read other reviews where book cover corners were bent. This would be a legitimate concern and candidly I do not know why desertcart has not corrected this problem. If you view the one star reviews you will read complaints about a handle not being on the book cover as seen in the photo. Duh!!! Really??? Are there actually consumers spending nearly $100 on a book with that expectation? In closing, this book about the Louis Vuitton brand is a complete and deep study in one of the world's most iconic brands and deserves a place in your library or coffee table. Review: Very nice - I love them

BEST coffee table book
If you are looking for large a coffee table, look no further! The deep dark chocolate brown cover is elegant and can be used year round. I think I may get another, that's how good it is. Fyi- the first one I got was damaged on the corner and received another one quickly with no damages.

Coffee table book!
Love this book! Took the cover off to display on my coffee table. The book itself is a deep dark brown with the LV monogram. Love how it looks on my coffee table. The history of LV is fun to look at and people love flipping the pages in this book.

Beautiful book to look at and read and also is nice on the coffee table
I love this book. It’s so interesting and fascinating because I also have a book on Chanel and I’m also going to get a book on Cartier. It’s not necessarily I can afford them. I just find the design how the concepts of things were how it’s made who started it how it work how it’s got to where it is just absolutely fascinating

Satisfeito
A capa do primeiro livro veio com manchas, como se estivesse queimada de sol. Pedi a troca e prontamente a Amazon fez a troca sem custo algum. Muito bom o livro.

storia e successi della Maison Vuitton
Questo volume, arrivato in perfette condizioni e nei tempi previsti, è davvero interessantissimo. Questo libro fotografico pieno di dettagli ci fa attraversare più di 150 anni di storia tramite il lavoro di Louis Vuitton e dei suoi successori. Il viaggio è il filo conduttore che accompagna tutto il libro. Inoltre pagina dopo pagina troviamo le invenzioni e le innovazioni tecnologiche di fine '800 e primi del '900 che hanno cambiato il nostro modo di viaggiare e vivere. Le creazioni della maison si sono allacciate fortemente alla produzione artistica e di design del secolo scorso. Un volume completo e molto elegante che sicuramente consiglio.
