Louis Vuitton Marc Jacobs

Louis Vuitton - Marc Jacobs, opened yesterday at the Musée Les Arts Décoratifs in Paris. Serving as a double biography, it highlights the contributions of each man in the world of fashion. Vuitton, an innovator that forwarded the luggage industry stretching into our times and Jacobs, a designer who in 15 years has made LV a power house to be reckoned with. What does Marc think of the exhibition? "I think curators have a kind of cerebral, heady, comparative narrative thing going on. For me the reward of doing what we do is doing it, not when it's done. And when people wear it and love it and covet it or can't wait to have it, whatever it is. So I think my attitude towards the whole thing was that I was very flattered, but how do we make this experience of what fashion is all about - which is the joy." An analysis rather than a retrospective, this parallel Vuitton-Jacobs comparison will provide new insight into the fashion system during its pivotal periods, beginning with its industrialisation and ending with its globalisation, focussing also on its artistic professions and crafts, technological advances, stylistic creations and artistic collaborations ~ Musée Les Arts Décoratifs.
