Louis Vuitton, who brought sophistication to the art of travel with their consummate collection of city guides, are now launching Fashion Eye, a series of books featuring stunning travel shots from five fashion photographers, bringing their style to five different luxurious destinations.
Featuring masters of the twentieth century to up-and-coming talent, the whirlwind world tour sees Paris-based Canadian photographer Kourtney Roy take in the sun-drenched vistas of California; Hong Kong native Wing Shya shares his unique view of Shanghai with images from his archive; late fashion favorite Henry Clarke’s archive spotlights India’s fusion of history and style; Jeanloup Sieff’s monochrome snapshots of Paris reminds us of the city’s place as the center of romance; fashion icon Guy Bourdin’s stylized editorial work hits the streets of Miami with a pop-hued filter.
By offering up a singular vision of each city, the series challenges the reader to venture out, take the world of possibilities within hand’s reach and write their own story—all with a stylish plane read in hand.
