LOUIS VUITTON PRESENTS «THE BALL OF THE CENTURY»<br />
AT GALERIES LAFAYETTE<br />
Louis Vuitton has joined forces with <strong>Galeries</strong> <strong>Lafayette</strong><br />
to celebr<strong>at</strong>e <strong>the</strong> 100th birthday <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> famous dome <strong>at</strong> Paris’s<br />
most prestigious <strong>de</strong>partment store and cre<strong>at</strong>ed several <strong>Christmas</strong> window<br />
disp<strong>la</strong>ys on <strong>the</strong> <strong>the</strong>me <strong>of</strong> “The Ball <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Century</strong>”.<br />
<strong>Galeries</strong> <strong>la</strong>fayette’s stunning art nouveau dome, which is beautifully<br />
<strong>de</strong>cor<strong>at</strong>ed with stained g<strong>la</strong>ss and byzantine-inspired raised <strong>de</strong>signs, is<br />
synonymous with boulevard haussmann. The <strong>de</strong>partment store, which is<br />
preparing to host “<strong>Christmas</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Century</strong>” to mark <strong>the</strong> dome’s 100 th<br />
birthday, has formed an unprece<strong>de</strong>nted partnership with louis vuitton.<br />
Taking inspir<strong>at</strong>ion from <strong>the</strong> dome’s sumptuous architecture, louis vuitton<br />
has cre<strong>at</strong>ed a series <strong>of</strong> disp<strong>la</strong>ys on <strong>the</strong> <strong>the</strong>me <strong>of</strong> “The ball <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Century</strong>” to<br />
bring <strong>the</strong> twelve windows on boulevard haussmann to life.<br />
Striking a contrast with <strong>the</strong> gold tones <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> sublime geometric<br />
<strong>de</strong>signs inspired by <strong>the</strong> dome’s architecture - which bring to mind <strong>the</strong><br />
instantly recognizable louis vuitton checkered p<strong>at</strong>tern and monogram -<br />
a menagerie <strong>of</strong> exotic animals including bears, penguins, pandas and pink<br />
f<strong>la</strong>mingos will form part <strong>of</strong> a cleverly constructed choreography. from <strong>the</strong><br />
four corners <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> p<strong>la</strong>net, <strong>the</strong> animals are a subtle nod to louis vuitton’s<br />
associ<strong>at</strong>ion with travel. The selection <strong>of</strong> products on disp<strong>la</strong>y will illustr<strong>at</strong>e <strong>the</strong><br />
company’s 158-year history, from vintage luggage to <strong>the</strong> l<strong>at</strong>est lea<strong>the</strong>r goods<br />
and ready-to-wear.<br />
Representing skill, excellence and precision, each window disp<strong>la</strong>y also<br />
aims to capture <strong>the</strong> <strong>Christmas</strong> spirit and dazzle <strong>the</strong> thousands <strong>of</strong> people<br />
<strong>of</strong> all ages who come to admire <strong>Galeries</strong> <strong>la</strong>fayette’s <strong>Christmas</strong> window<br />
disp<strong>la</strong>ys. and so <strong>the</strong> disp<strong>la</strong>ys will reflect <strong>the</strong> dome’s architecture, luxurious<br />
<strong>de</strong>cor<strong>at</strong>ions and clean lines as well as louis vuitton’s <strong>at</strong>tention to <strong>de</strong>tail.<br />
louis vuitton’s “The ball <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Century</strong>” window disp<strong>la</strong>ys <strong>at</strong> <strong>Galeries</strong> <strong>la</strong>fayette will be unveiled<br />
<strong>at</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>of</strong>ficial <strong>la</strong>unch on 6 november 2012.<br />
