Inside
Marc's World
Louis Vuitton's hotly-anticipated Marc Jacobs exhibition will open at Les Arts Décoratifs
in Paris on March 9 until September 16. A celebration of the designer's
15-year-long reign at the luxury label, the exhibition will be curated by
leading fashion author and lecturer Pamela Golbin.
The showcase will look at both Jacobs'
and Vuitton's contributions to the fashion world, seperately as well as
together once Jacobs joined the 158-year-old label in 1997. The space will
cover two floors, with each dedicated to one of the two exhibition subjects.
Visitors can expect to see Jacobs' most famous designs for the French fashion
house, alongside a selection of Vuitton's iconic trunks.

Monday May 16, 9.16am: Marc Jacobs is set to become the subject of a new exhibition
at Les Arts Décoratifs in Paris, which will look at the designer's work
for Louis Vuitton since
he took over the creative reigns in 1997.
The display will also pay tribute to
the iconic fashion house's eponymous designer, who started out his career as a
trunkmaker in 1854. The museum's curator plans to showcase two different
periods in the label's history - the industrial revolution of the 19th Century and
the globalisation of contemporary fashion.
According to WWD, specific dates have not yet been announced although the
exhibition is thought to take place next year.
