I am digging deep to figure out as to why Louis Vuitton artistic director, Marc Jacobs, is not showcasing in New York City. It seems that many European fashion houses are also not showing in New York, but instead showing in Milan or Paris.
Could this be a trend among European fashion houses? Fashion Week is a very prominent event that takes places in the four major fashion cities (New York, London, Paris, and Milan) twice a year.
One way to figure out why Louis Vuitton is not showing in New York Fashion Week is simply to look back at the history. The saying, "History repeats itself", is very true in the fashion industry. Looking up pictures from past runway collections, I discovered that Louis Vuitton has had shows in Paris and New York. In Paris, Louis Vuitton has shown all of their collections. Whereas in New York, Louis Vuitton has had very few runway collections. The fashion house had runway collections for the following seasons: Cruise/Resort 2011, Pre-Fall 2010, Cruise/Resort 2010, Fall 2009, and Cruise/ Resort 2009.
Currently, New York Fashion Week is showcasing the Spring/Summer line and Louis Vuitton has never shown this season in New York. I guess I will just have to wait until October 3rd to see what Louis Vuitton has in store for their Spring/Summer 2013 Collection in Paris!
Enjoy the rest of Fashion Week!
