Last weekend, LVMH’s 2013 Les Journées Particulières event spread out over 40 locations to open up their world of significant heritage and supreme craftsmanship.

Initiated by LVMH director Antoine Arnault in 2011, this year the event swelled over more houses offering tours of their workshops, ateliers and factories.
