In anticipation of my trip to Paris and Asnières to the historical studio and home of Louis Vuitton I would like to post the latest fashion film of the traditional brand. For their new design collaboration with Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama they shot a pair of 1-minute fashion films that are almost exactly the same, except for 5 differences. Can you spot the difference? Play the game, after the jump.
My trip to Monte Carlo to the Louis Vuitton Classic Serenissima Run was in a way a time travel in two directions. On the one hand the beautiful oldtimer cars that took part in this prestige race from Monaco to Venice transported me back into the past when car design was not a slave to aerodynamics and efficiency. On the other hand the drivers of the cars, mostly mature gentlemen and their wives, gave me a vision of a future – an age where priorities shift from coolness and sex appeal to elegance and class. But my visit to the French Riviera had more in store for me than that. Read more about an amazing experience after the jump.

Sadly we are going to miss the menswear show of Louis Vuitton in Paris this afternoon because we are not leaving to Paris until tomorrow. Luckily the show is streamed live. Watch the show with us at 14:30h live here on iHeartBerlin.de right after the jump.
What do we love about our city? What makes us wander around in search for adventure, fun, love or even happiness? Is it the expectation that we share with others about a better living? Is it the sparkle of unexpected beauty that we see through the cracks of the walls and the dirt on the street. When I arrived and settled in Berlin- Friedrichshain seven years ago it felt like coming home from a long journey. And this feeling never left my side.
One of the most amazing experience I made a couple of weeks ago when I had the chance to share all my favourite places in my neighborhood with my a slightly snobby, but very lovely Mitte-friends. And seeing my home kiez through their eye’s made me even prouder of where and how I live. We passed by all my favourite spots and documented it with the iPhone for the new Amble with Louis Vuitton App.
With Amble it is easily possible to create urban tours and share it with your friends. You can also follow the footsteps of other Amblers like Sofia Coppola, Anna de la Russo, Rachel Weisz and many more. After the jump you can see the lovely tour we made through Friedrichshain. Download the Amble with Louis Vuitton App to follow our tour or create your own Amble.
This city is a magnificent giant playground and even if the fun we have doing one thing is sometimes as big as the frustration about missing another, we love to live here after all. But what does ‘here’ actually mean? What is ‘your’ Berlin? I realize more and more that people tend to stay within their districts. Forgetting about the big Metropolis around them they seem to be so immerged into the little village we call „Kiez“.
This is what we realized when we prepared ourself for the Amble experience, a brand new iPhone App by Louis Vuitton that helps you create little walking tours through your city and tagging your favorite places with photos, videos and comments.
Our friends are so attached to their Kiezes that they never go anywhere else. That’s why we kidnapped them from their neighborhoods and went on walking tours through Mitte and Friedrichshain documenting all the new things they discovered so that we can share their experience with our readers. Stay tuned for the whole tours and make yourself acquainted with Amble with Louis Vuitton.
