Yesterday was the day of Louis Vuitton. In the morning Marc Jacobs failed to disappoint with his fall 2012 collection at the brand but last night was all about their much anticipated exhibition, which helped close Paris Fashion Week.
Two floors of the Louvre were taken over as guests including Sarah Jessica Parker (who flew in especially for both events) and fashion folk like Miuccia Prada and Anna Dello Russo explored the event dedicated both to the history of Vuitton and Jacobs' work at the house. While the first floor was dedicated to the classic trunks and heritage, the second floor featured Jacobs' partnerships with artists like Takashi Murakami alongside several of his big campaigns and memorable collections.
Catherine Deneuve has recently endorsed a line of handbags produced by female prisoners in Lebanon.

Here we find Mr West, Mr West (aka Kanye). Catherine Deneuve is giving him the, "Uh uh, grrrl" face, but perhaps you think the velvet blazer and pocketsquare go smashingly with distressed denim?
