The Opening of First Louis Vuitton’s Global Store in São Paulo this Thursday

This week in São Paulo is all about the opening of the first global store of Louis Vuitton in Latin America. For those who don’t know what that means, a global store is a store that includes ALL the lines of a brand; in Louis Vuitton’s case, ready-to-wear, accessories, books, watches, and even a select mix of jewelry.

A delegation of French executives will be landing in São Paulo tomorrow: Yves Carcelle, the current CEO, will introduceJordi Constans, who will assume his post in late 2012. Yves was in Brazil two years ago, when it was decided the first major label’s store would be open at Shopping Cidade Jardim. The new space will have the Haute Maroquinerieservice, dedicated to customizing bags.

Juliana Paes will be the special guest of the night, and the music is up to DJ Isaac Ferry – Brian Ferry’s son! On the guest list, are also French actress Elisa Sednaoui, German princess Elizabeth von Thurn und Taxis, fashion editorDerek Blasberg, and Alex Dellal.

See you there!?
