Louis Vuitton are arguably the most famous company ever to produce luxury luggage and are synonymous with the art of travel. Since 1854 they have produced a wide variety of every type of luggage for the traveller. They have been responsible for many innovations and trends as the means of transportation diversified. In 1893 Louis handed over the company to Georges his son. Georges made Louis Vuitton a worldwide corporation and in 1896 put out the company's monogrammed canvas luggage covered with the trademark initials 'LV' and decorative floral motifs that everyone recognises and loves today.
