LVMH x Parsons @ Milk Studios



Last week we attended an event titled The Art of Craftsmanship Revisited: New York which presented pieces created in collaboration between Parsons and LVMH (Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton). The event, which was held at Milk Studios, celebrated the authenticity, creativity, and craftsmanship that has long inspired and defined the luxury industry. The competition started in late 2009 and paired twenty-three teams with local master artisans. They were then challenged to create fashion ensembles and documentary films inspired by the work of their artisan and the world of LVMH. Three winning teams will be selected by a panel of judges and announced this Spring.
