Last night was the opening of the New Bond Street Louis Vuitton flagship store. While I was doing my work experience at Glamour magazine I walked past the boarded up LV store a lot, as it was being finished. But I haven't seen it in all its glory yet and it seems like the perfect excuse to do a spot of window shopping on Bond Street.
As you all know celebrities love Marc Jacobs - they appear in his campaigns, attend his parties and fight to sit in his front rows - so unsurprisingly there was a great celebrity turnout last night. Thandie, Gwyneth, Alexa... they were all there. But it was Kirsten Dunst who stood out from the crowd. She looked amazing.
I actually squealed this morning when I saw the pictures of her in the A/W 2010 Vuitton dress. It looks like it was made for her! And I thought Gemma Arterton looked fantastic too. I'm starting to really get into her style; she's definitely one to watch.
When I first saw the Louis Vuitton A/W collection I did wonder how it would translate onto the red carpet, as the dresses are at the awkward in-between length and the look isn't as flash and attention-grabbing as Vuitton can be. But the collection has gone down a treat. Rachel Bilson and Maggie Gyllenhaal both looked gorgeous at the Met Gala this May (it's been Rachel's best look of the year by a long run) and a handful of Vuitton frocks popped up in Cannes too.
I'd really like to see SJP in a Vuitton A/W dress, but between her promise of wearing a McQueen piece to the CFDA awards this Friday and her relationship with Halston it looks unlikely at the moment. Still, a girl can dream...
Did you like Kirsten and Gemma's Louis Vuitton looks last night? And who is your number one Vuitton lady? For me it's between Kirsten and Rachel.
