There’s often a line to get the French powerhouse’s largest and most ambitious in North America. The five-story space at 6 E. 57th St. features the brand’s first café and chocolate shop in the US, as well as towering installations and an exclusive capsule of keepsakes.
Last month’s glittering opening event — attended by LV-clad Bradley Cooper, Ana de Armas, Nina Dobrev, Cynthia Erivo, Jennifer Connelly and Martha Stewart and DJed by the Fcukers and Mike D of the Beastie Boys — was admired on countless social media posts. Incredibly, the boutique is only temporary. The interim location will remain open for several years while the Fifth Avenue flagship is undergoing a renovation. The facade of that permanent address is currently wrapped with traffic- stopping supersized LV trunks.
