LOUIS VUITTON: GRAND OPENING OF THE TIMELESS MUSES EXHIBITON IN TOKYO- ATTENDEES
Antony’s just returned from Japan. He’s had basically no sleep, and probably spent more time on a plane than on the ground, but still we’re DEAD jealous. Like madly madly jealous. To us a trip to Tokyo is a trip to the future- as frankly most of us have never been and our knowledge is based largely on late night Manga watching. Fashion is a world based on the premise of six months time- so yeah duh, we like the idea of time travel. The jet lag must be worth it, as it was all in aid of the grand opening of ‘Timeless Muses’ at the cities emblematic Tokyo Hotel Station. Hosted by Michael Burke, Chairman and CEO of Louis Vuitton and Frédéric Grangié, President and CEO of Louis Vuitton Japan, who welcomed the likes of Catherine Deneuve, and Kate Moss. Hot Damn. Have you seen the pictures? Well you have now. The show presented immersive digital opportunities to explore the world of the big L.V’s many beautiful muses, and though we won’t be able to hot foot it over to immerse ourselves (summers been and gone Tenners), we can relive the experience via Papa Miles tales….and oh yes, famous off the cuff Blackberry shots- scroll back if you missed em. (FROM L-R): Kate Moss, Catherine Deneuve, Ai Tominaga, Rila Fukushima, Yoon and Verbal.
