Louis Vuitton is preparing to celebrate the 130th anniversary of its iconic monogram on January 11, 2026, with a special collection. The brand revolutionized travel in the 1850s with flat-topped trunks, allowing stacking and changing how people traveled. Historically, Indian royals in the early 1900s were early adopters and collectors of Louis Vuitton items, with some, like Maharaja Jagatjit Singh, amassing significant custom trunk collections.
