Around the modern, brightly lit workshops there are some extraordinary pieces of luggage being assembled. Violin and guitar cases are not unusual but there is a trunk for a client in Taiwan that has a solar panel and batteries so the owner can make a cup of coffee, send emails and listen to music wherever he travels. Another was made for a client in Malaysia to hold a PlayStation. Damien Hirst helped Patrick Louis Vuitton design a pair of trunks for the 150th anniversary - one printed with butterflies - while Scott Campbell, the tattoo artist who has left his mark on Marc Jacobs's flesh, is the proud owner of a Tattoo Box covered in Monogram Macassar canvas with drawers for his needles and ink bottles. It could take anything from eight months to a year to make a small trunk with drawers for make-up and accessories. Given this length of time, maybe those decadently clad ladies in their mink coats and pyjamas in the Vuitton show should have thought twice before leaving their trunks.
