The Beginning of Louis Vuitton Handags

According to legend and, I'm sure, some historical facts, Louis Vuitton was the bag man (literally) to Napoleon III of France in the early part of the 1800s. Actually, he was hired to handle the baggage of Napoleon's wife Eugena. The ultra wealthy and nobility of France and much of Europe, in those days, hired servants to actually pack their bags, handle them and make sure they accompanied the royalty and arrived at the designated destination in good shape. This is an obscure fact of early nobility.

Fact is, even today's royalty has someone pack their bags and accompany them to their destinations. However, in the early 19th Century, the luggage was very bulky, ugly and took up too much room in the carriages of the time. The bulkier the luggage, the more inefficient was the handling and moving and thus, more luggage was needed to carry around the wardrobe that befitted the wealthy and the royal of the time. Along came this luggage handling genius named Louis Vuitton, who designed more slender, less bulky luggage that could actually carry more items and was much nicer to look at. This luggage could be stacked because it was flat rather than round and wide. By using this baggage medium, more bags could be packed into a smaller space. The luggage was also said to be airtight, meaning it may keep fabrics dryer and safer than the old, loose bags that were used prior to it. His luggage became so popular that even the non-royalty were using it. He began his own luggage business in about 1854 and the business has thrived ever since. In 1892, after award winning presentations at the World's Fair, he began to make handbags. The handbags were of such quality that they became immensely popular and have maintained their popularity since that time.

Louis Vuitton handbags are, to this day, a symbol of luxury and quality. The price is exorbitant but the quality is rarely matched and Vuitton bags are some of the world's finest and most sought after.

Many of Vuitton's bags are matches for the larger luggage items, but much of the lines are designed to be simple handbags, though very luxuriant.

Less than 1% of all manufactured Vuitton bags are actually genuine Vuitton. The rest are clever fakes. The reason for the unbelievably high number of fakes can be attributed to the sheer popularity and demand of Vuitton bags and the relatively short supply. Counterfeit Vuittons can be found in many places but the genuine articles can only be found in upscale and sophisticated shops that are assigned rare dealerships. It is even considered chic to own a Vuitton knock-off if it is a good counterfeit, but the pride of owning a genuine Vuitton cannot be surpassed in both the present and in the future as Vuitton bags hold their value and, indeed, increase in value with time.
