The history of Louis Vuitton

The History of Louis Vuitton

The brand Louis Vuitton, shortened to LV, was founded in Paris 1854 by (you guessed correctly) Louis Vuitton. Prior to being known for the beautiful leather goods, Louis Vuitton was actually a trunk-maker for Eugénie de Montijo, wife of Napoleon lll. He learnt making trunks by Monsieur Marechal while he left his home at age of 13 after his father’s death. The reason he left his home in Anchay was his rocky relationship with his stepmother. Kind of sounds like the cinderella story, right?
