Louis Vuitton achieved a major milestone as the brand celebrated its 21 years of history in Malaysia, by opening the new flagship store in Starhill Gallery, the ultimate luxury shopping arena and experience in Kuala Lumpur, with a celebration for more than 600 guests.

Today marks an important milestone and symbolizes our dedication to our customers and friends of Malaysia.”

The evening was officiated with a ribbon cutting ceremony officiated by Mr. Francois Delage (President of Louis Vuitton Asia Pacific), Kathy Lam (General Manger, Malaysia, Louis Vuitton), Tan Sri (Dr.) Francis Yeoh (Managing Director, Starhill Gallery) and Siti Nurhaliza, the mega superstar.
