Louis Vuitton, London


I have to admit it, I am a huge fan of what this brand does.  OK, well I don't have the finances to purchase any of this merchandise, but that doesn't really matter to me.  Just to view the spectacle that these guys produce is enough for me to enjoy and what a spectacle this is.  Their incredible installation currently here at their Maison along Bond st. is as superb as their previous one.  An Asian rickshaw carrying gorgeous articulated figures deliberately placed as if seeking directions and communicating their narrative is just delicious beyond words.  When you are aware of the work that these guys do and what goes on beyond the scenes to get here just makes me appreciate what they do even more.  The in store guys are just so incredibly helpful  and nice too with every greeting  said as if they really do mean it.  If this isn't the way forward for the mid range and laggards brands to aspire towards then I feel we will see an awful lot of empty commercial spaces around town in the near future.
