Pharrell at Louis Vuitton celebrates the diversity of human skin in Paris UNESCO show Business

By the 21st century, Arnault had grown LVMH into the largest luxury-products company in the world, and the Louis Vuitton brand included a full fashion range featuring the work of top designers, including Marc Jacobs and Virgil Abloh. Of course, this is far from being the first time we’ve seen Louis Vuitton lean into football. The French luxury house has designed the travel trunk for the FIFA World Cup Trophy several times since 2010. And collections thematically tied to the FIFA World Cup have explored football-inspired designs before.

For the Paris Fashion Week moment, Williams and Co. have provided Wiz with one of the freshest looks from the pre-SS25 collection, comprising a V-neck Fair Isle jumper, a pair of tailored shorts and a very nice shirt. He makes it his own by swapping out the collegiate tie seen in the lookbook for an ivory one, and the preppy loafers for some white sneakers. Carpenter sported her usual glam for the occasion, wearing her signature blonde hair in a half-up, half-down style with loose curls and wispy curtain bangs. On the makeup front, she opted for a set of fluttering false eyelashes, laminated brows, mauve blush, and a matching glossy lip. A year after shutting down Paris with his momentous Louis Vuitton debut, Pharrell Williams’ latest runway spectacle once again brought the stars out in droves.

Netted bobble hats were a perfect archetype of the spring fare — part East London net shopping bag, part Old Master artist. This clever use of materials and accessories is a testament to Saunders’ commitment to sustainability, often utilizing deadstock fabrics from platforms like Nona Source and materials from Positive Materials and Isko. A blue mesh onesie and cap added an urban touch while playing on the theatricality present throughout the collection.

Pharrell’s appointment at the cultural maison results from a long-since demonstration of his effectiveness with the brand. “His creative vision beyond fashion will undoubtedly lead Louis Vuitton towards an exciting new chapter,” wrote Louis Vuitton’s Chairman and CEO, Pietro Beccari, in 2023, nodding to Pharrell’s LV collaborations in 2004 and 2008, respectively. The 25-year-old pop star attended the storied fashion house’s presentation Tuesday at the Paris headquarters of UNESCO, showing off a lot of leg in a brilliantly white double-breasted jacket with a peaked collar that hit at her upper thigh.

Some of the biggest standouts from Louis Vuitton’s Spring/Summer 2025 collection were a range of leather garments crafted out of LV soccer balls. It low key looks like designs LV would have made after Pharrell invited Nicole McLaughlin to its atelier, which isn’t a super farfetched notion considering P wrote the foreword for the upcycling queen’s self-titled book. Multiple accessories included airplane ornaments, aviator sunglasses, foulards with world maps, and, of course, bags for almost every look, including a new “soft leather” bag line that reinterprets the canvas twill classics. Williams, 22, looked dapper in a green jacket with brown leather details and beige sherpa material, while Thyredgod stunned in an LV logo miniskirt and a black button-up sweater. The former USC quarterback — whom the Bears selected with the No. 1 pick in this year’s draft — and the blonde beauty attended the Louis Vuitton Menswear Spring/Summer 2025 show in Paris on Tuesday, and wore stunning pieces by the French luxury designer.
