LV menswear shows epitomize everything I hate about fashion nowadays.
This is true and rather unfortunate for fashion (lovers), because many luxury brands are getting divorced from fashion and are producing predominantly flashy merch or non-descript pieces which could be from anywhere^ Manuela Pavesi's famous curse <It will sell well, but it isn't fashion> seems to be exactly what many are aiming for nowadays.I don’t know if he understands fashion but he understand the luxury customer of today, for better or worse.
:-) it's the updated version of the LOUIS VUITTON BOULOGNE Shoulder Bag not the Romy ... but yes its same vibeIt’s almost unfair to think that Vuitton is supposed to compete with Gucci….
That was quite a great show and quite a strong collection from Pharrell.
It’s better in terms of cut and silhouettes plus, some looks were very chic.
There were some tacky denims and I was surprised to see Hedi’s Romy bag on the runway but the bags were great too.
And the cast was wonderful. I don’t know if it’s Pharrell or his CD but it’s good to finally see some handsome men on the runway.
So far the best collection of the season.
PS: his bow was slightly embarrassing…He was expecting a standing ovation. Parisians have the Olympics and an election next week, they aren’t for it (and they are probably reserving the SO for Dries).

This is the epitome of fashion democratization. It’s pure show. Entertainment business.
Next move will be having an influencer as a designer or CD… about time.
Hopfully the Vogue office security will recognise him/ her this time around lolAs Eugene Rabkin predicts, the next EIC of Vogue will be Rihanna (or another pop figure).
I don’t that will happen though. It’s something I realised myself (and through the forums) that the LV men’s and women’s operates on a different level with a different clientele. And having them both in their respective roles, women can go to Pharrells men’s and men can pick things out from Nicolas’ if they feel like it, but that would be rare for the latter. The LV men’s client is kind of dumbed down and very archaic so the freedom for them to go to LV women’s is nearly a non event because they’re less likely to flaunt that what they’re wearing is in fact LV women’s (women’s with men’s though, different story). Plus it would be foolish for LVMH to swipe Nicolas for Pharrell because then you have zero brand diversity. You’ll lose audience in favour for catering to just one.You may like this now @Lola701 but wait until he comes for Nicolas's seat ☠️ . If this becomes wildly successful plus his ego I have no doubt he will ask for it.
Like they did when Tom left…Maybe. But again we are making all those suggestions because Sabato is not delivering. If his collections were good, we wouldn’t be talking about them that way. So either way, his presence on the equation is not needed.Maybe Gucci should separate men's and women's like Vuitton and Dior with 2 CD
