LifestyleFashionPharrell Williams Unveils Louis Vuitton Men’s Fall-Winter Collection at the Louvre

Under the night sky in the courtyard of the Louvre Museum, Pharrell Williams, the men’s creative director of Louis Vuitton, launched the brand’s fall-winter collection, setting the tone for Paris Fashion Week. The runway was alive with marching music as models strode past, showcasing a dynamic blend of tailoring, streetwear, and high-fashion craftsmanship.

Williams, a music icon turned designer, delivered a collection that seamlessly merged chunky wool suits, bomber jackets, leather bermudas, and oversized coats in a palette of pastels, deep autumn hues, and psychedelic takes on Louis Vuitton’s monogram. Accessories stole the spotlight with colorful Speedy bags, pearl embellishments, oversized jewelry, and playful lobster-claw charms.

For this collection, Williams partnered with Nigo, the Japanese designer behind Kenzo and a longtime figure in streetwear culture. The duo’s history dates back to 2003 when they co-founded Billionaire Boys Club, a brand that played a pivotal role in the rise of music-infused fashion. Their influence was evident in the blend of luxury and street style, bringing an effortless cool to Louis Vuitton’s aesthetic.

Front-row attendees included LVMH CEO Bernard Arnault, who was seated between his wife, Helene Mercier, and NBA star Victor Wembanyama, soaking in the energy of the show. The event marked the start of Paris Men’s Fashion Week, which runs through January 26, before giving way to Haute Couture Week.

Luxury fashion houses are navigating a challenging market, with slowing demand in key regions like China, though many brands remain optimistic about U.S. growth in 2025. Despite economic uncertainties, Williams’ bold, innovative vision for Louis Vuitton continues to redefine men’s fashion, proving that the intersection of music, street culture, and high-end craftsmanship is more relevant than ever.
