The Fall 2009 [Louis Vuitton](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/louis-vuitton-fall-2026) men's Paris show could well have been a catwalk interpretation of the economic crisis. Men in suits, briefcases in hand, walked the runways looking somewhat scruffy, their expressions hopeless. Each LV model had a briefcase in hand, as if walking from his job, bag in hand, or perhaps en route to deliver yet another job application on a wintery Wall Street day.

Bundled up in jackets, high necklines and some in hats, the [Louis Vuitton Fall 2009 men's show](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/louis-vuitton-springsummer-2026) was a great way to showcase some of the brand's [newest briefcases, bags and winter gear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/express-handbag), while remaining relevant to global events and establishing an emotional connection with those affected by the hardships of the economy.
