For someone who was confused with this sentence just like me: Louis Vuitton is a big company except for this super luxury brand. Although we always consider LV as an extra luxury brand producing various handbags, LV is a company literally. That's the explanation from the AI assistant: the phrase "She got her foot in the door at Louis Vuitton" means that she has secured a position or an opportunity, potentially at a lower level, within the prestigious company Louis Vuitton. It suggests that she has made an initial step or entry into the organization, which could lead to further opportunities or advancements in her career there. This expression often implies that getting in at a well-known or competitive place can open more doors for future growth. I hope this will work:)

What I was thinking before I asked the AI assistant: She scrimped and saved to buy a Louis Vuitton handbag because she was struggling to get her foot in the door at those people who enjoy showing off their LV handbags. lol
