At the heart of Louis Vuitton is the City Bags, a range of women's bags dating back to the early twentieth century. The City Bag, bearing the house's signature monogram, began with the Steamer, a resort bag designed in 1901 to be stored in a much larger travel case. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In a hundred years, these bags have evolved into a dizzying array of handbags for every conceivable function the modern woman needs. Highly influential, City Bags are known to millions by their descriptive names (Keepall, Bucket, Papillon, Alma, Locket, Noe, Speedy) and continue to evolve into even more imaginative forms. The book is lavishly illustrated with new and archival photographs, historical images, groundbreaking articles and advertising campaigns.<\/p>\n<p>The book 'Louis Vuitton: City Bags is an ambitious book about the birth and development of a cultural phenomenon.' It traces the history of these particular bag families, examining the earliest specimens and today's most sought-after collectibles, including Vuitton's collaborations with Takashi Murakami, Stephen Sprouse, Richard Prince, Yayoi Kusama and Rei Kawakubo and one-off projects by Zaha Hadid, Shigeru Ban, Vivienne Westwood, Helmut Lang, Andr\u00e9e Putman and, of course, Marc Jacobs.<\/p>\n<p><iframe id=\"atomic-insight-reader\" style=\"height: 800px; width: 600px;\" src=\"https:\/\/insight.randomhouse.com\/widget\/v4\/?width=600&amp;isbn=9780847840878&amp;author=&amp;title=\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><strong>Specifications<\/strong><br \/>\nTitle: Louis Vuitton City Bags: A Natural History<br \/>\nAuthor: Jean-Claude Kaufmann<br \/>\nPublisher: <a href=\"\/en\/brands\/rizzoli-books\">Rizzoli<\/a><br \/>\nSize: 323 x 251 x 37 mm<br \/>\nSize: 400 pages<br \/>\nWeight: 2523 grams<br \/>\nLanguage: English<br \/>\nMaterial: Hardback<br \/>\nISBN: 9780847840878<\/p>\n<p><i>View our extensive range of luxury\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.koffietafelboeken.nl\/en\/fashion-books\">fashion books<\/a>\u00a0of the world's most famous designer labels such as Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Dior and well-known sports brands such as Nike and Adidas.<\/i><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The coffee table book \"Louis Vuitton City Bags: A Natural History\" tells the unprecedented history of Louis Vuitton's women's bags, the most coveted accessory line in women's fashion.
