Heritage French fashion brand Louis Vuitton just outfitted its “Visionary Journeys” experience in Seoul, Korea, for fashion lovers and enthusiasts.
The experience is now open at the brand’s new six-story storefront, “LV The Place Seoul at Shinsegae The Reserve” – which opened earlier this month. The three-floor experiential exhibit is a visual adventure that’s both educational and inspiring. While roaming, visitors will be enveloped in Louis Vuitton’s trajectory from a luxury trunk maker to the leading “House of Culture” that it is today. The experience gives visitors a look at how the brand’s imprint extends beyond fashion, into music, home goods, lifestyle, and more.
Among the themed spaces are ones dedicated to the brand’s history of personalization and its monogram. Globally renowned architect Shohei Shigematsu helped design the experience’s eye-catching and mind-bending signature rooms. Of course, guests can also expect to see unique archival LV offerings.
