Louis Vuitton worked with Vanessa Beecroft for the re opening of their Paris flagship store. She presented a performance of '30 naked models-black and white-sat silently on shelves alongside classic Louis Vuitton handbags and luggage.' Charta's VB LV documents Beecroft's monumental inaugural performance in this one-foot-square, glossy hardcover album. Models were positioned to spell out letters of the alphabet as apart of the art.

Louis Vuitton withdrew this from circulation after it was made clear that Beecroft "unintentionally" infringed upon the Dutch designer Anthon Beeke's copyright for his Naked Ladies Alphabet that was published in 1970. Beecroft and Louis Vuitton issued an apology and stated they had no malicious intent in creating this work.
