Opened to the public last week in New York City’s former American Stock Exchange building, ‘Volez, Voguez, Voyagez’ exhibition reviews the history of Louis Vuitton from 1854 until the modern day. The same exhibition first made an entrance at the Grand Palais, Paris in December 2015 and has since enjoyed successful stints in Tokyo and Seoul.

Curated by Olivier Saillard, French’s star fashion curator, historian, and performer, ‘Volez, Voguez, Voyagez’ in New York explores the archives of the House’s founding family members.
