Louis Vuitton s global preeminence, Christian Dior s exceptional development, the growth of a collection of unique brands whose success is consolidated year after year, and its active support for young designers make LVMH a key player in the fashion and leather goods industry.
Inspired designers
Working with the best designers, while respecting the spirit of each brand, is one of our strategic priorities. Our creative directors promote the Maisons distinctive identities, and are the artisans of their creative excellence.
Balance between iconic products and innovation
Since 1854, Louis Vuitton s renown has been built on the flawless execution of its unique trunk-making expertise, its full control over distribution and its exceptional creative imagination: a source of perpetual renewal and innova- tion. Its product line has continuously expanded for over 150 years with new models from luggage to handbags and more and new materials, shapes and colors. Ever since its first show, dubbed New Look by the press, Christian Dior has continued to redefine fashion as it has become an icon of French luxury throughout the world. Monsieur Dior s unique vision is conveyed today with bold inventiveness throughout the Maison s entire range. By striking the right balance between new releases and iconic lines, these two Maisons continue to dazzle and surprise their customers, making their boutiques ever more inspiring.
An engaged industry leader
LVMH has always been committed to supporting young designers and up-and-coming talent. The LVMH Prize for Young Fashion Designers, which recognizes the creative talent of an outstanding designer every year, was created to reaffirm this commitment. As a fashion industry leader, LVMH feels that is our vocation to nurture the creative talent of the future. We also feel it is our responsibility to ensure the well-being of the fashion models who work for our Maisons, which is why we decided to draw up the Charter on Working Relations with Fashion Models and their Well-Being.
