A three-week exhibition is being held on Rodeo Drive in the US to celebrate Louis Vuitton’s collaborations with leading artists over the last 160 years. 

The Beverly Hills exhibition is showcasing 180 items from the French fashion house’s archives, including six monogrammed leather duffel bags that have been reinterpreted by artists such as Zaha Hadid and Karl Lagerfeld. 

Additional highlights include a collection of early 20th-century special-order trunks, art deco perfume bottles and window displays designed by Louis Vuitton’s grandson, Gaston-Louis. 

The exhibition runs until September 15.
