Pharrell Williams’ latest menswear collection for Louis Vuitton is a testament to the brand’s rich heritage in travel and exploration. The Spring/Summer 2025 collection, revealed at La Maison de l’UNESCO, is a vibrant celebration of human diversity and global connectivity.
Inspired by the African-French cultural platform Air Afrique, the collection features graphics and patterns that pay homage to Afro-diasporic arts and culture. The theme of travel is woven throughout, with aviation pilots serving as the main inspiration. Uniforms, cropped jackets, bombers, and flight suits are reimagined in a modern, stylish way.
The collection begins with a monochromatic palette, gradually transitioning to a kaleidoscope of colors, including the signature green and blue hues that symbolize Louis Vuitton’s international spirit. The iconic Damier and camouflage patterns are reinterpreted with fresh colors and inspirations, including a snake-o-flage motif and a map-o-flage design that reinforces the global theme.
Pharrell’s vision extends beyond fashion, creating a sense of community and welcome-ness that transcends borders. The collection is a testament to Louis Vuitton’s enduring legacy as a symbol of global exploration and cultural exchange. By bringing creatives and audiences together, Pharrell and Louis Vuitton remind us that the world is indeed ours to explore and celebrate.
