Today, Louis Vuitton expresses its daring spirit by developing additional savoir-faire in a growing number of related crafts, always propelled by an inexhaustible desire to do the unexpected. Historically known for its Damier and Monogram canvases, the Maison also creates leather goods in a range of finishes such as the iconic Epi, as well as increasingly sophisticated leathers and models such as the timeless Capucines bag. Starting at the end of the 20^th century, Louis Vuitton reconnected with its founder’s expertise as a wardrobe packer with the launch of fashion collections for both women and men, now headed by Artistic Director Nicolas Ghesquière. Since then, the Maison has also ventured into the domains of watchemaking with the Tambour timepieces, jewellery headed by Artistic Director Francesca Amfitheatrof, as well as fragrances with Master Perfumer Jacques Cavallier-Belletrud. Frequently collaborating with world-renowned artists and architects, the Maison presents the Louis Vuitton Objets Nomades collection of travel-inspired objects and furniture imagined by a growing list of leading international designers.
