Louis Vuitton has reopened its Asnières Workshop in France and has announced it will present a new exhibition called “Time Capsule”.

“Time Capsule” has been described by the iconic fashion label as “a journey that traces the history of the house by highlighting innovations in technology and design.” Louis Vuitton’s Asnières workshop dates back to 1854, housing history, one-of-a-kind pieces, grails and more inside its walls.

Asnières has produced some of Louis Vuitton’s most fascinating and highly-regarded pieces of craftsmanship in its years, and now reopens to the public to showcase rare and unique pieces from the LV archives.

You can experience “Time Capsule” for yourself every Saturday and Sunday until October 27. To reserve tickets, head to the Louis Vuitton site.

In case you missed it, HYPEBEAST recently got up close with the Louis Vuitton men’s pre-SS20 collection.
