About this product

Product Information

When Louis Vuitton: The Birth of Modern Luxury was published in 2004, the book was the first to describe the dramatic rise of the world's finest luxury company. Written with full access to the company's archives, it demonstrates Louis Vuitton's passion for fine design with a stunning array of archival art, product designs, and cutting-edge advertising. The company is examined through the lives of its first three leaders--founder Louis (who invented the modern trunk), his son Georges, and his grandson Gaston. Now with fresh information on subjects such as designs for ready-to-wear clothing, shoes, jewelry, and even automobiles, this new edition includes 20 additional pages and updated material throughout the book, covering the brand's recent history, with new texts and photographs.

Excellent! Retrostar Music is a very fair seller - they gave me a 5% discount on top of an already great price! They also communicated the status of my order quite frequently. The CD I ordered came in a box with plenty of wrapping paper to ensure it would not get beaten up in shipping. Usually sellers just send CDs in envelopes, so I was pleasantly surprised when this arrived in a box. The CD itself is in perfect condition. A+ experience! I would highly recommend this seller!

"Moneyball" is an old/new movie/DVD that I haven't seen. "Retrostar Music" as seller had some of Mr. Pitts movies & this was labelled "New", I decided to purchase it. The seller sent all I ordered with FREE shipping &discounted the price of all as well. It took less than a week - six days - for my complete order to arrive & they were all carefully packaged & arrived in two boxes. If I ever have a question regarding what else is in the seller's inventory, I always receive a very prompt reply.

    Great price for an amazing book!

    Even though it took a long time to arrive, I am really happy I received this book. It was priced just right - almost 50% of retail. I am using this as one of the books on my coffee table

    A gift for a table book fan.

    I purchased this as a gift for a friend who has table books that are more for show than reading. Check around as I found it over $20 cheaper after purchasing...the book was sealed but I saw the contents before buying elsewhere. If you are into fashion and want to see trunks, bags, and pocketbooks you may love it!!

  • Great book but first version was far superior to this updated edition.

    I first saw this book a couple of years back and I appreciated the quality of the pictures, the way every topic was thoroughly researched and documented and the overall feeling this book was as luxurious as the subject itself. I had to have it. When I purchased this updated edition, some of the topics that had attracted me in the first place had disappeared with a feeling that it had been replaced by pages and chapters covering at length the new concepts of the LV stores around the world. I am disappointed as my motivation for buying a book on Louis Vuitton is to learn more about the LV products (trunks, bags, leather goods... etc) and the history of the manufacture rather than the architecture and design of the new LV buildings... This book is a beautiful object, a perfect gift ...
