A Louis and Marc Exhibition

Another Louis Vuitton and Marc Jacobs

win for all the fans out there!

The expo, which is being held at the Paris' Musée des Arts Décoratifs

(until the 16th Sept 2012)

is a story of two men:  the brand's father Louis Vuitton (1821 - 1892)

and

Marc Jacobs (who became creative director in 1997)

This exhibition aims to present the two stories of the brand's two important

personalities, and underline their individual contributions to fashion as a whole.

Showcasing some AMAZING trunks

(that the average woman during the 1850's, just after the brand was born, would carry

around 30 at a time when traveling!!) as well as

the average daily wardrobe of this same lady, usually consisting 

of about 6 different outfits... (only in my wildest dreams

could I wear six different outfits a day!!! sigh)

These items on show are truly remarkable!

There are also on show some of the more recent works that were

seen under the Vuitton brand that were created in collaboration

with famous names

such as Stephen Sprouse, Takashi Murakami and Richard Prince...

There is just SO much to see in this exhibition,

and I BEG those of you who will hit Paris before the end date

to please please, for me, go take a look!!!

And if you're a true Marc/Louis lover... you can purchase  an exhibition catalogue, entitled 'Louis Vuitton / Marc Jacobs', features interviews with Marc Jacobs by Murray Healy!

(Book featured in the first pic below.... as well as a little sneaky

shot there of the beautiful shoe that was part of the amazing

Louis Vuitton S/S 2012 collection!!)

Below are a few more pics from the Expo...

Enjoy!!

Elle Fanning - For Teen Vogue

Only 13 Years Old...

.............................................

And already Elle is making waves in every

fashion-orientated editorial around the world!

I've even mentioned her and her sis in my blog before:

Talking about the August 2011 "The Age Issue" of Vogue,

she appears with her sister, Dakota, in a startlingly memorizing pic!

(see it here!)

So in Feb of 2012, Teen Vogue readers got to see her timeless beauty

grace the cover of this mag... 

It is well known that the Fanning Sisters  are very fashion

forward, and in this fashion shoot alone she wears

big names such Marc by Marc Jacobs, 

Valentino, 

Louis Vuitton,

Prada...

and others.

Wow, and she's only thirteen... Lucky doll!

Her and her sister seem to encompass this timeless look and feel,

and since they both radiate a sense of maturity and 

class beyond their years and it is always

surprising to remember just how young they both are... Her sis has only just turned 18!

Not only is Elle a pretty little girl, she's one heck of a good actress aswell,

Her role as Alice in Super 8 was remarkable,

definitely a movie I recommend you watch asap... it was simply brill!

So take a look at the snaps of Elle below for her Vogue shoot

and keep an eye out for her and her sis, great things are surely on their way
