LOUIS VUITTON "I began by envisioning the traveling business wardrobe of an African king. I wanted to blend contemporary tailoring techniques and practicality with the more traditional aspects of ceremonial dress-the intricate patterns, the continual use of layering, the clash of materials or textures to create depth. I wanted something loose, something raw, but without compromising on elegance or the silhouette."
