Just thought some of you might be
interested in this news. I know Id love to visit the museum when it is
done (gives me an excuse to make it back to Paris)!!!PARIS (Reuters) –
Frances biggest fashion group presented plans on Monday for a futuristic
museum built out of glass to promote the heritage of its brands, Louis Vuitton Outlet
promising the new Paris landmark would be a celebration of
creativity.French tycoon Bernard Arnault, chairman of luxury goods group
LVMH Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton, said the 100 million euro ($127
million) museum would show the art that has influenced its designers
from Christian Dior to Marc Jacobs.
The “Louis Vuitton Foundation for
Creation” will be housed in a glass-clad building soaring over the trees
in the Bois de Boulogne park on the citys western edge that
Canadian-American architect Frank Gehry said was intended to resemble a
cloud. Louis Vuitton Outlet Store
Critics immediately drew parallels between Arnaults project and the
museum plans of his arch rival in business, Francois Pinault, owner of
the luxury Gucci Group.Pinault, who also owns Christies auction house,
unveiled his modern art collection earlier this year in Venice after
attempts to build a museum on an island in the river Seine in Paris were
thwarted by bureaucracy.“It wont be a purely contemporary art
foundation,” said Arnault, knocking down comparisons with Pinaults
collection.
“Comparisons with other initiatives
are not pertinent.”Gehry, who designed the titanium-clad Guggenheim
museum in Bilbao, Spain, said the commission for the Louis Vuitton
building was like a dream.“As I experienced the world, Paris became my
favorite city,” louis vuitton handbags
said Gehry, 77. “So when a man who leads in fashion, who collects art
that I love, invited me to Paris to do a building it was a heavenly
assignment.”Gehry said when he saw the site he thought of the writings
of Marcel Proust and “wanted to cry with happiness.”Arnault said the
cost of the building to LVMH, which spends billions each year on
advertising, would be spread over five years. He hoped construction
could start next year and end before 2009.Paris Mayor Bertrand Delanoe
said: “This is an enormous present for Paris, Louis Vuitton Sunglasses
and for Frances image in the world.”French Culture Minister Renaud
Donnedieu de Vabres promised the foundation would get favorable tax
treatment.
This is one of the ideal clutches
that calls to me; structured, elegant, and classic. The outside is
designed with monogram-embroidered silk satin, louis vuitton shoes
which is perfect for those of you who are not super keen on the LV
monogram. The structured frame-top body is designed with shiny golden
brass hardware. There are two other major perks, including the removable
long link chain shoulder strap and golden lambskin lining. Small
clutches transformed into shoulder bags do not look great on everyone
(unless you are super tall and super lean, I am talking about myself
too), but it is a great plus. And the luxurious leather lining really is
a nice finishing touch, seeing that many LV bags are lined with
canvas.For those who appreciate meticulously crafted leather in an
elegant timeless bag, the Louis Vuitton Suhali line is perfect. Louis Vuitton Rolling Luggage
My mother and sister, aka Anti-logo-family-members, have always been
drawn to this line. The sturdy and stunning Suhali goat leather offers
divine structure.
