Louis Vuitton handbags are expensive but quality is unbelievable, you get what you pay for. For 6 consecutive years (2006 - 2012) LV was named the worlds most luxury brand,  So the question is ladies, what Louis Vuitton item are we going to ask for this year??

Louis Vuitton was a French entrepreneur and designer whose name is well recognised and well known in the fashion world.  Louis was born on 4th August 1821 in France and made his first career  move in 1854 as  trunk maker.  According to a Millward Brown 2010 study, Louis Vuitton is the worlds 29th most valuable brand, the brand itself is estimated to ne worth over US$19 billion.

Louis Vuitton is a well known designer brand and the LV monogram appears on most of the LV products ranging from luxury trunks and leather goods to ready to wear shoes, watches, jewellery, accessories and sunglasses.  In 1896 Georges (Louis Vuitton son) created the famous Louis Vuitton monogram to respond to copying of brand patterns, featuring diamonds, circles and flowers to distinguish the brand.
To celebrate the 100th Anniversary of the monogram canvas in 1996, LV brand invited selected designers to create unique pieces of luggage.

On the 27th February 1892, Louis Vuitton sadly passed away but he had continued to work right up to his death.   His son was determined that the brand would not die with his father so has carried on the image and it has remained the luxury leather and lifestyle brand it remains today.
