LV DREAM

Beginning on December 12th, 2022, LV DREAM will open its doors to the public and invite guests to explore a deep study of Louis Vuitton’s historical and current collaborations. This immersive experience, which consists of nine interactive chambers, revisits the very creative interpretations in ongoing conversation with the Maison. The exhibition features a diverse range of ready-to-wear collaborations, the first three chapters of the Artycapucines collection of reimagined Capucine bags, and the earliest artistic endeavors such as window displays and perfume bottles. It also includes specially commissioned trunks, iconic Monogram reworkings by renowned artists, and specially commissioned trunks.

“Maxime Frédéric at Louis Vuitton”

The “Maxime Frédéric at Louis Vuitton” café and chocolate shop (Chocolaterie), both run by the famous Chef-Pâtissier of the Cheval Blanc Paris, are part of LV DREAM’s effort to enhance the experience.  The two spaces, which are located above the show, provide a rich vegetative backdrop with tropical plants as accents. The Café provides guests with a beautiful refuge with a specially curated range of fresh pastries that reference the Maison’s themes. La Chocolaterie has a curved counter made of natural oak that is surrounded by stacked trunks with niches to show off the boxed chocolate delights.

For this store, a collection of small leather goods, accessories, perfumes, and books has been specially selected.
