According to multiple sources, a new louis vuitton maison will open in shanghai, marking the second location in the city and the fourth in china.
It is the first louis vuitton maison in the world to have a ship-inspired design.
The maison store, which is 1,600 square metres in size, is inspired by the trunks and luggage louis vuitton crafted for sea voyages in the days of yore.
The three-storey venue will serve as an exhibition space, a retail shop, and a dining area.
There is an exhibition called louis vuitton: visionary journeys.
It is said that louis vuitton is doubling down on shanghai, but specifically on the nanjing road area, which is becoming the city's luxury hub.
