Trunks anyone!!!

One day I dream of having my own little range of divine ports that will see you through any adventure.. Yes I smell it now, exquisite leathers, lining that you wish you had a matching skirt made from... Little wallets that are easily removed that hold your makeup brushes or nail kit or something you love doing while you are on a flight.. Drawing pencils ah sketching and designing your future..
My inspiration on how to design and manufacture these ports are coming from this amazing book out right now, I am slowly making my way through it, it is the history of LV 100 Legendary trunks.. The opening line reads 'The 19th century belonged to the explorers, the archeologists and the adventurers. Governments endorsed this kind of travel either for Colonial or evangelization reason or as it goes on to mention to establish power.. These travelers did not want to go without their comforts and the intelligence of Louis Vuitton was to talk to his clients and find out what their needs were and design each of these trunks to satisfy all purposes.. He did ground breaking designs with materials that weren't even conceived then.. It is, I believe, the reason it has become such a revered label, where others stumbled he set standards..

Now I know today we have all our creature comforts wherever we go as it is just in transit that we require the comfort of our possessions and the ability to access them without all our things falling on the floor of the airport.. But also we want an effortless style.
But in the meantime read an amazing story of a great designer and inventor for the lifestyle of adventurers.. The pictures themselves are just so delicious you could just imagine how people traveled in those days..
