Taking All Over The City.
You have probably seen the big trunk building taking over NYC, and yes, it’s Louis Vuitton. The Maison has unveiled its largest-ever concept store in the United States—a five-story immersive shopping destination on 57th Street in Manhattan. Just steps away from its iconic flagship, which is now closed for a multi-year renovation, this temporary space brings together all of Louis Vuitton’s métiers and introduces the first-ever Louis Vuitton chocolatier in the U.S.
This new temporary space is a visual spectacle, with its open atrium featuring freestanding sculptures by OMA architect Shohei Shigematsu, nodding to the Maison’s trunk-making legacy. Each floor of the store offers a distinct universe: leather goods on the first, womenswear on the second, menswear on the third, and a culinary destination, Le Café Louis Vuitton, on the fourth. Partnering with NYC’s Starr restaurant group, the café is an elegant, library-style retreat offering gourmet dishes and chocolates from Chocolat Maxime Frédéric, another first for the U.S.
The fifth floor brings a mix of exclusivity and artistry, featuring three private salons, retail lounges, and dedicated spaces for Objets Nomades and Art de la Table collections. Tucked away is a secret loft-style room showcasing high jewelry and watches, providing a hidden treasure within this expansive space.
Take a look into the newly open store below.
