Louis Vuitton
Louis Vuitton was founded in 1854 in Paris by its namesake trunk-maker, who developed flat-topped, stackable trunk designs specifically to replace the rounded-top trunks that had previously dominated luxury travel luggage, since flat trunks could be stacked far more efficiently during shipping and travel. The company introduced its now-iconic monogram canvas pattern in 1896, developed by Louis Vuitton's son Georges specifically to combat widespread counterfeiting of the brand's earlier striped canvas designs, and the LV monogram pattern remains one of the most recognized luxury fashion symbols in the world today. Louis Vuitton became part of LVMH, the world's largest luxury goods conglomerate, and the brand has consistently ranked among the most valuable individual fashion brands in the world, sustained through both its core handbag and luggage lines and extensive collaborations with contemporary artists and designers. Louis Vuitton's combination of its founding innovation in stackable travel trunk design and its enduringly iconic monogram canvas pattern has made it one of the most commercially valuable luxury handbag brands in the world.
VS
Hermès
Hermès was founded in 1837 in Paris by Thierry Hermès, initially as a harness and saddle workshop serving European carriage trade, before the company later expanded into leather goods and handbags, retaining strong equestrian design influences throughout its later product lines. The company's Birkin bag, created in 1984 after a chance airplane meeting between Hermès executive Jean-Louis Dumas and actress Jane Birkin, became one of the most exclusive and highest-resale-value handbags in the world, with Hermès deliberately limiting production and requiring established purchase history before customers can buy one. Hermès has remained substantially family-controlled since its founding, resisting a notable hostile takeover attempt by LVMH in the early 2010s, and the company's continued family ownership structure is frequently cited within the luxury industry as central to its sustained ultra-premium brand positioning. Hermès's combination of the Birkin bag's deliberately scarce, waitlist-driven exclusivity and its sustained family ownership resisting LVMH's takeover attempt has made it one of the most prestigious luxury handbag brands in the world.
