A Vintage Boutique for "Louis Vuitton" and "Hermès" Enthusiasts
"AMORE Vintage AOYAMA" features a Moroccan-inspired interior and houses an extensive collection of approximately 1,500 items, primarily focusing on "Hermès" and "Louis Vuitton." The "Hermès" collection is truly remarkable, with an entire wall dedicated to Birkin bags, creating a captivating display that immediately catches the eye upon entering. "Louis Vuitton" also offers an impressive selection, including rare designs from the 1990s and 2000s, as well as highly sought-after collaboration pieces.
The store's interior exudes an exotic Moroccan-inspired ambiance, featuring brick walls and marble flooring. Each room is uniquely designed to highlight different brands, such as "Hermès" and "Louis Vuitton." The fixtures and furniture, all vintage pieces handpicked by owner Itakura during his travels abroad, contribute to a thoughtfully curated display. Every detail has been meticulously arranged to create an atmosphere reminiscent of an upscale international boutique.
More than half of the store’s inventory consists of "Louis Vuitton" items, primarily featuring models from the 1990s and 2000s. The collection includes highly sought-after pieces, such as color monogram designs and cherry-patterned collaborations with Takashi Murakami. Additionally, the store offers an impressive selection of exceptionally rare "Louis Vuitton" collaboration pieces that are seldom seen elsewhere. With new arrivals every day, each visit brings the excitement of discovering something new.
The store's main display showcases highly sought-after collaboration items that are drawing considerable attention.
A wide selection of classic "Louis Vuitton" Monogram and Damier series variations is also available.
The store offers rare pieces from the 2008 Fall/Winter collection, including the "Monogramouflage" collaboration between Marc Jacobs and Takashi Murakami, as well as the Monogram Denim and Monogram Metallic series.
Additionally, the 2003 collaboration with Takashi Murakami, the "Monogram Panda," is also part of the lineup. The mini-sized panda, named "Petit Panda," is an ultra-rare item, with only 150 pieces released worldwide.
The "Hermès" collection is truly breathtaking, with an entire wall lined with Birkin bags. Unlike typical stores where bags are displayed in glass cases, this boutique allows customers to pick them up and try them on freely. In addition to classic colors like black and brown, the store offers a wide range of unique shades and models—each one a rare, one-of-a-kind piece. Many of the colors are difficult to find elsewhere, making the shopping experience even more exciting.
