Louis Vuitton: Series 3 opens in London

Last night, Glass celebrated the launch of Louis Vuitton’s latest immersive experience, Series 3, which opens today at brutalist show-space 180 Strand, London.

Disorientating and consuming, the exhibition offers a fascinating look into the past, present, and future of the house. The 11 interconnecting rooms are a maze of fascinating stories: one contains a reconstruction of the AW15 runway, the next a display of vintage Vuitton trunks. One room even houses the brand’s prized artisans, working away on Petite Malle clutches.

Glass celebrated with flute of Ruinart fizz and chocolate canapes, in a glass-walled room overlooking the starry London skyline. Joined by a flurry of Nicolas Ghesquière’s friends and fashion-week regulars – Alexa Chung, Catherine Deneuve, and the Delevingne sisters included – we were in very good company, until the very early hours.
