Book It: Louis Vuitton: Art, Fashion and Architecture

Of the three new fashion tomes Eric Wilson reviewed in today’s Times, the one that sounds the most worthwhile is this Louis Vuitton book, Louis Vuitton: Art, Fashion and Architecture ($130). Not only does it come with a jacket designed by Takashi Murakami, it has a cool plexiglass cover, perfect for those of us who sometimes accidentally use our coffee table books as a coaster.

Of course, even more important it what’s inside: a pictorial retrospective of the brand’s many collaborations with designers in the worlds of art, fashion and architecture. It’s published by Rizzoli and is only available in Louis Vuitton stores and online at louisvuitton.com, so don’t try trolling for it on Amazon – mon Dieu! It’s buried on Vuitton’s hard-to-navigate website, but you can get directly to it buy clicking here.
