London, Dublin, Brussels, Hamburg and Amsterdam in 2003, seen through Louis Vuitton's City Guide and drawn by Rubén Toledo. Together they form a portrait of northern European city life at the turn of the millennium.
This is the 2003 Louis Vuitton City Guide, Volume III, covering London, Dublin, Brussels, Hamburg and Amsterdam. It was published by Louis Vuitton Malletier in English and illustrated by Rubén Toledo.
Five cities shaped by trade, art and architecture.
Louis Vuitton began as a trunk maker in Paris in 1854, and travel has remained central to the house. In 1998 it extended that idea to the page with its City Guides, written by independent journalists and authors rather than by the house itself.
London, Hamburg and Amsterdam grew through trade and shipping, Brussels through its place at the centre of Europe, and Dublin through its literary and Georgian heritage. Grouped together, they show how commerce, art and architecture shaped these cities.
Many of the addresses recorded in 2003 have since changed or closed. Read today, the guide shows where these cities ate, shopped and spent their evenings at the beginning of the twenty-first century.

Early editions of the Louis Vuitton City Guides are collected as fashion and travel ephemera, and they are useful to writers, stylists and set designers researching the 2000s.
Louis Vuitton publications are collected alongside fashion books and travel ephemera.
Guides were used and replaced by newer editions, so early copies are fewer.
Interest in the style and culture of the early 2000s continues to grow.
