When Louis Vuitton opens a new store, there is much more
than a few balloons. For the
introduction of the new London location, entire streets were shut down so that
celebrity Vuitton fans could enjoy a peek, followed by an exquisite, vintage
inspired banquet.
The always elegant Thandie Newton was photographed with
Naomie Harris, and wore a fabulous Louis Vuitton dress in deep gold, accented
with shimmering jewels. The scrunched
bubble hem looked amazing, and a ruffle v-neck finished up the look.
In a look that was much more understated, yet wonderfully
sophisticated, Gemma Arterton appeared in a longer dress of pale rose
silk. The dress hit mid-calf and
featured a wide, inset waistband. Slight
gathers at the neck created beautiful detail and the three quarter sleeves
offered a sense of delicacy. Along with
her dress, Gemma wore sky-high Louis Vuitton pumps and held a monogrammed
satchel in one hand.

Proving the great versatility of the brand, Caroline Sieber
was seen in a much edgier dress. The
black mini dress featured a geometric denim piece at the front was adorned at
the sides with turquoise embellished fringe.
The bodice revealed a deep key-hole design and beige accents. Worn with metallic stiletto sandals, this
look conveyed a sexy, edgy theme.
As we all know, Louis Vuitton is not just for the
ladies. Actor Dominic Cooper appeared in
a fantastic navy suit with notch collar and satin accents. Worn with a gray leather shoe, this handsome
young star looked almost as amazing as some of the beautiful starlets and
models.
Louis Vuitton is a leader in luxury brands. How could anyone expect a store opening to
convey anything less? Who else could get
beautiful celebrities to show up advertising their product from head to
toe? Louis Vuitton clearly goes all out
for any occasion from fashion show to store opening.
