About Louis Vuitton
Louis Vuitton began making flat-topped, stackable trunks in Paris in 1854, a departure from the domed lids then standard, and the monogram canvas was designed in 1896 to deter the counterfeiters who were already copying the earlier designs. It is the largest brand in LVMH and one of the most valuable luxury brands in the world.
