In anticipation of the grand renovation of its iconic Fifth Avenue flagship, Louis Vuitton has unveiled an ambitious temporary location at 6 East 57th Street in New York City.

Situated a short distance from the Maison’s permanent store on 57th Street, the new space pays homage to Louis Vuitton’s deep-rooted connection with New York City. Housed in a striking Art Deco building, its expansive windows and bold architectural elements draw immediate attention. Inside, the design plays with contrasts to dramatic effect. A towering installation of Courrier Lozine 90 trunks rises to the ceiling, honouring the brand’s storied heritage in trunk-making. At the same time, a vibrant wall adorned with Keepall and Speedy bags showcases Louis Vuitton’s modern flair.
The fourth floor offers a unique destination: Le Café Louis Vuitton. Combining the elements of a café and library, this space is curated by editor Ian Luna and features over 600 titles spotlighting New York artists. The culinary offerings, masterminded by chefs Christophe Bellanca and Marie George under French culinary experts Arnaud Donckele and Maxime Frédéric, introduce a fresh take on “luxury snacking.”
For those with a sweet tooth, Le Chocolat Maxime Frédéric promises exquisite handcrafted delights, making it a haven for chocolate lovers. Shoppers and collectors alike can also look forward to an exclusive capsule collection available only at this location.
More than a temporary retail space, Louis Vuitton’s 57th Street NYC location is an invitation to explore the Maison’s universe completely new. It celebrates art, culture, and gourmet innovation, seamlessly interwoven to create an unforgettable journey for visitors. Whether you’re drawn to its architectural grandeur, culinary artistry, or timeless luxury, this new venue promises to leave an indelible impression.
