It features leading lights from Louis Vuitton's Autumn/Winter 2013/14 Paris show, who during night time fittings with Katie Grand at Louis Vuitton's studio, were whisked outside onto Rue du Pont Neuf where Lima filmed them on the surrounding streets. The film also combines backstage show footage, and features a hauntingly beautiful soundtrack by Steve Mackey.
Katie Grand says: "James Lima is one of my favourite directors to work with so when the opportunity arose that he may be available to shoot backstage at the Vuitton AW13 show, I jumped at it. I knew the character was his kind of woman; she was French and a lady that enjoys the night time. James shot at the same time as we worked inside the studio on the show fittings; he was shooting on the streets around Pont Neuf. Once again we used LOVE favourites: Cara Delevingne, Edie Campbell, Lily McMenemy, Saskia de Braw, Magdelena Frackowiak and Isabeli Fontana."
