The Asnières atelier is a pivotal location. Barely five years after founding Louis Vuitton, Louis himself began to outgrow his Parisian headquarters. In 1859, he relocated the new workshop to Asnières, a village a few kilometers northwest of Paris. 

This new atelier was built in the ethereal Eiffel style, combining glass and steel. The exceptional savoir-faire of the Asnières artisans is such that, even today, key pieces are created here: rigid trunks, designs in rare or exotic leathers, special orders. 

From within its “Galérie” in Asnières, Louis Vuitton presents Time Capsule, a journey through the history of the House that revisits its landmark innovations in technology and design. Travelling from the House’s beginnings in 1854 to the present day, the story is told using rare and celebrated objects selected from the Louis Vuitton archive.

The exhibition follows a visual timeline of landmark moments in the Louis Vuitton story, demonstrating the ways in which Louis Vuitton has anticipated the needs and desires of a changing world over 160 years generated by technological progress, with imaginative and ingenious new creations.

In Time Capsule, heirloom designs live alongside some of the House’s most contemporary pieces, highlighting the ongoing commitment to constant innovation.

Visit Asnières to discover the intimate aspects of Louis Vuitton’s history, its ties with the ateliers, and admire in detail the presence of the Louis Vuitton universe in every creation.

Presented at the Cour Lefuel within the Louvre earlier this year, the collection is about anachronisms, a fashion statement that transcends time. Nicolas Ghesquière has created a quintessentially French look; a nod to “French Chic” with strong details that have been interpreted with an elegant yet modern twist. Featuring key themes including sportswear, western embroidery and jewel embellishments, it offers a complete wardrobe for today’s sophisticated woman.

A capsule collection of ready-to-wear featuring the Monogram Trunk will be launched at the pop-up; offering a fresh and feminine perspective on the iconic codes of the House.

Until March 2017, at the Men's Pop-Up Store, customers will be able to discover selected ready-to-wear items as well as accessories and bags from current and upcoming collections, in particular the Men's Spring-Summer 2017 Collection, all created by Men's Artistic Director, Kim Jones.

Kim Jones' inspiration for the Men's Spring-Summer 2017 Collection: the vastness of Africa – to be understood metaphorically as a return to the heritage of the House and to Kim Jones' own childhood, which he spent in Southern Africa. There are traces of Africa throughout the designs, for which he collaborated for the second time with British artistic duo Jake and Dinos Chapman on the giraffe, zebra and rhino prints.
