GO-14: the shoulder bag by Louis Vuitton
“Man is a creation of desire, not a creation of need» wrote the French philosopher Gaston Bachelard. And it is certainly in this aspect of human nature that the success of some fashion houses must also be sought. As the story of one of the most iconic tells, capable of giving continuity and coherence to both ever-appreciated classics and new dream objects. Let’s talk about the house Louis Vuitton, which is confirmed as one of the most loved brands in the world (as attested, among other things, by the Lyst Index ranking) and records brilliant market performances with constant growth in revenues. A path and a success told perfectly by one of his bags: the “GO-14”. The debut precisely in 2014, as one of the first creations signed by the artistic director Nicolas Ghesquière, which today offers a new version. Once again the game is an exchange between past and present. “GO-14” is in fact characterized by the “Malletage” diagonal pattern, historically used as an internal lining in the famous travel trunks of the maison. «There are some universal codes that exist only in Louis Vuitton. It was therefore a matter of re-appropriating them and transferring them to a new context». The secret seems to be, then, to get to know each other thoroughly in order to be loved.

Lucky numbers
3 is not the perfect number. At least it is not for the Chanel maison, which has made the 5, the founder’s lucky charm, its icon, its graphic symbol and the name of its most famous perfume. Today this number continues to be the absolute protagonist, this time of a special jewelry collection.
Necklaces, bracelets and rings that skilfully combine the preciousness of beige or white gold with the brilliance of diamonds. A graphic sign capable, by itself, of embodying and telling the story of an excellence.
