  + stars: | 2024-08-11 | by ( Kaya Ginsky | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +2 min
The 2024 Paris Olympic Games medals are displayed inside a custom-designed trunk manufactured by Louis Vuitton, an LVMH brand partner of the Paris Olympic and Paralympic Games, during a gathering at LVMH in Paris on July 22, 2024, ahead of the start of the 2024 Paris Olympic Games. Whether it's the Moët champagne poured to celebrate a win or the custom trunks that Louis Vuitton has made for medal ceremonies, luxury has been on full display at the 2024 Paris Olympic and Paralympic Games. To Carly Duguid, the creative director for tennis and fashion star Naomi Osaka, luxury fashion and athletics are the perfect combination. Osaka was the first athlete to partner with Louis Vuitton, whose roster now includes Victor Wembanyama, Carlos Alcaraz, and many French Olympians and Paralympians. LVMH has looked to make a big splash beyond just athlete partnerships, becoming the first luxury brand to be an Olympic sponsor.

Why a Tiny Trough Garden Always Attracts an Audience
  + stars: | 2023-07-12 | by ( Margaret Roach | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
These diminutive stars can be seen spilling out of pockets in a 35-foot-long rock retaining wall, in the gravel bed above it and, of course, in troughs and more troughs. Selling tiny plants may not be the mainstay of the business, “but it’s one cachet cow,” Ms. Chips joked. The nursery, in a bucolic setting that feels like an old garden, attracts a clientele that includes beginning gardeners and connoisseurs who come for the carefully curated selection and the depth of staff expertise. Ms. Spingarn built and planted the rock wall in the 1970s. The two were longtime employees of the previous owner, Mr. Duguid said, and aim to continue the nursery’s traditions.
