Louis Vuitton has launched an updated version of its "City Guide" book, and two new issues of its "Fashion Eye" photo book are scheduled for release in November.


Since 1998, Louis Vuitton has been publishing more than 80 titles, including three travel-themed collections: "City Guide," "Travel Book," and the "Fashion Eye" photo book.

Of the 30 cities covered in its "City Guide," which introduces select addresses, 10, including Paris and Tokyo, have been updated with new content and have been released. The editions for Beijing, Lisbon, London, Moscow, New York, San Francisco, Seoul, Singapore, Tokyo, and Paris have all been completely redesigned.

City Guide Tokyo (3,400 yen)
Each city's charms are showcased by guests from a variety of fields. This year, Paris is showcased by interior designer and architect François-Joseph Graf, while New York is showcased by actress and singer Sophie Auster. Architects Alexei Ginzburg and Kengo Kuma will guide you through Moscow and Tokyo, respectively. The guide covers everything from palaces and charming boutique hotels, gourmet restaurants and neighborhood bistros, local markets and charming épiceries (grocers), antique shops, designer havens, museums and boutiques, famous monuments and hidden gems. Available for iPhone or iPad, the digital City Guide provides complete coverage of each city, with thousands of regularly updated addresses, and can also be enjoyed on Apple TV and Louis Vuitton's first connected watch, the Tambour Horizon, featuring two features: "Around Me" and "24 Hours."

"Fashion Eye" is a photo album in which fashion photographers capture cities and places from their unique perspectives. To coincide with the international photography fair Paris Photo, new additions will be made to the collection from November: Sarah Moon's "Fashion Eye: Orient Express" (5,700 yen) and Adolphe de Meyer's "Fashion Eye Japan" (5,700 yen).

Through his photographs taken in the early 1900s, Paris-born Adolphe de Meyer, considered the first great fashion photographer and truly ahead of his time, sheds light on the spirit of Japan as it opened its doors to the West, offering a fascinating glimpse into Japanese culture and society at that time. And Sarah Moon, a French artist acclaimed for her unique style and creativity, brings the famed Orient Express to life for the modern day.
