The styles
Pharrell Williams' debut collection for Louis Vuitton Menswear was centered around the theme of joy and love. The collection showcased Pharrell's own distinctive style, balanced with the historic designs of the Louis Vuitton house.
We see the newly interpreted Damoflage, which draws its inspiration from the iconic chess board pattern of the Damier monogram print, now infused in a camouflage design, creating a distinct print that instantly reflects Pharrell's artistic touch.
We see the Damier print in bold colours of black, yellow, red, blue and green as well as a newly transformed pixelated aesthetic of the print.
The SS24 menswear collection also features lush oversized coats, baggy and flowy pyjama-wear silhouettes and reworked Louis Vuitton trunks and even a reimagined Speedy bag, now crafted from pinch-able and collapsible buttery leather — all a nod to Pharrell's unconventional balance of comfort and style.
And then there's Pharrell's playfulness in the tailoring, heavy on chains and accessories, funky hats, refined fabrics and shorted suits.
Overall, the collection can be seen as a harmonious blend of Pharrell's creative vision as well as the brand's heritage and finesse.
Pharrell's commitment to inclusivity also shone through by emphasizing designs on humans rather than adhering strictly to traditional menswear.
The night
The event witnessed an impressive lineup of celebrities including Jared Leto, Zendaya, Kim Kardashian, Naomi, Lewis Hamilton, Maluma, J Balvin, Jaden Smith, Rihanna, A$AP Rocky, Beyoncé, and even JAY-Z. Pharrell's influence was clearly unmatched as he seamlessly blended various aspects of his show, showcasing his musicality and artistry. Notably, designers Jeremy Scott, JW Anderson, and Pharrell's long-time friend NIGO were also spotted in the front row, showing their support.
Pharrell's vision for Louis Vuitton menswear was not only about creating fashionable garments but also celebrating the legacy of the brand and paying tribute to his predecessor, Virgil Abloh.
