Luxury and utility don’t often go hand in hand. French fashion house Louis Vuitton, however, is a clear exception: As stylist Kate Young explains on the latest episode of Hello Fashion, her YouTube show created with The Slowdown, the house—though now one of the world’s most recognizable fashion brands—was originally “built by a luggage-maker who was innovative, who thought about things in a very practical way: how to travel with things, how to make bags lighter, how to make them more practical.” In the episode, Young walks us through the evolution of the house and its designs, which have consistently checked the boxes for both form and function.
