Louis Vuitton Cruise 2026 Avignon

[IndigoHomme]

For some reason, this show reminded me of Bailey's Burberry shows: well-crafted historical references, fabrics that felt truly luxurious, and music that immerses you in the atmosphere that inspired the collection. If I had to criticize anything, it would definitely be the excessive shine on the shoes and some knitwear that didn't fit at all (You're not Anderson, Nicholas).

Wonderful. Show was also great.

He got fed up with "Stranger Things"; and now he is into "Games of Thrones". It feels as if he was designing with streaming TV in his mind all the time.

 

[VogueDisciple93]

FANTASTIC collection and show! When he is on he’s marvelous and he was ON for this collection!

It is not perfect because he still has opportunity with editing -the peep-toe mirrored monstrosities are pure violence and must be stopped - but overwhelmingly still a peerless show.

I usually feel extremely indifferent on NG shows but this was phenomenal.

I believe this is about Joan of Arc I'm not sure but out of all the designers working today he reminds me the most of my favorite designer karl lagerfeld and what Karl means to me is sketching good design and most importantly longevity. Fantastic showcasing

Me too

I love this. And within all the hard there is so much romance, and this kind of dressing is in the air. I feel like he might be directional with this collection, it leaves his peers so far behind. Those bags are also great, lvmh is in a good place with Vuitton

His world building in terms of maintaining the same models and silhouettes over the past decade is beyond impressive to me. You can instantly spot a Nicolas LV look

Bravo Nicolas.
The rest of endless parade of merchandise can stay home, because Nicolas just teaches them how to do fashion and commercial in one collection. This is a perfect blend of fashion and commerce without sacrifice one or another.

I love the richness of this collection in terms of fabrics and silhouettes, you know he put in the works with each looks because the fabric's development is insane. This collection is the perfect mixture of past, present, and future. You can see the history of the location mixed with Nicolas's self-referential of his past and current designs. There is an ongoing evolution of Nicolas that is always so captivating to me.
The pants are so Balenciaga and the outerwear is great but the stars of this show are the embroidery minidresses, look 18 and 21 are stunning.
The styling is great, MAS did a great job of letting the silhouettes shine, and the layering really enhance it.
The bags are so good, I want the woodblock bags so bad. They'll be hit next season.
The shoes are okay, I wish the boots weren't open-toe.

Now all I need is a killer campaign, cause this collection is too good to be wasted with a mediocre campaign.

I enjoy that this is a much more pragmatic collection for once from Nicolas - Nice, trim tailoring, flattering proportions, not trying very hard to deliver something that only the most daring fashion followers will wear (Hate it in general when fashion goes that snobbish route and it’s quite clear runway looks only ever end up on VIPs).

Tastewise, this is clearly not aimed at me but I can understand why this hits with people who are really followers of fashion with a capital F - It hits that sweet spot between rich, attention-grabbing textile work and a pragmatic, easy to integrate versatility customers will seek for. There’s a lot going on in terms of proposals, maybe too much but we already know that’s something a Vuitton show from Ghesquiere will always deliver compared to his 2000s shows at Balenciaga (I loved how his shows at that time had running orders in sections of different ideas he had explored for each collection.

Overall, it’s a good, solid collection - The kind of thing I *expect* from a house like Vuitton with all the resources at hand, helmed by one of the most influential designers the industry has to offer.

They had a giant screen outside of the venue in front of the Palais des Papes for the people of Avignon. I think it’s nice that they got to enjoy the show « in real time » too.

I think it’s something more brands should do when they have shows in very small cities or even when they do their resort/prefall shows.

Looks 10 and 34 are so Balenciaga Le Dix!

Me seeing the pictures: 😶😶😴🫩🙂🤨👍🏼☺️👍🏼😶😶

I mean, a few good things here and there but whileI was reading the comments I thought I was going to see something amazing and… oh well.

 

[tourbillions]

The last dress without the cape was soo nicholas' balenciaga. Will the moto jackets specially the white one ever make it out in stores? And in mens size...


It might be time for them to slowly drop all the kpop stars? The stans are ruining the comments section for me. I dont even dislike kpop but its distracting from such a good collection if all i can read are comments about some idol and some random praise for the collection.

It’s that level of couturey craftsmanship in RTW that’s all but missing these days getting people excited. But all I see is just scraps from his superior Balenciaga days now wrangled together with the desperation of #lookatme! social media aesthetic. The Dapper Dan Christmas wrapping paper patchwork and flame design are beyond desperately overwrought and heavy-handed imprinting. Sadly, restraint is lost on him nowadays. And it’s just as well, since none of these will make it to the retail floor and just relegated to the brand’s 80,000 ambassadors on the red carpet.

Even more obnoxious is this need to corporate flex with the enormous football-field-as-catwalk, where the cast has to walk a kilometre just to circle the runway. Can’t suffer his presentations: Just soulless, charmless and graceless. Thank goodness for the latest Dries/Khaite/Tom Ford presentations that don’t require a stadium to create an impact.

Nicolas and his Vuitton has become the Trump International Hotel Las Vegas of fashion.

thank you for a balanced and critical eye ....i revisited the pictures in hd the more i don't like the collection in general ..restraint in when to push and when to hold back or edit is still messy asf

i love NG but even the people you love can make mistakes or let you down
