If you have yet to check out Louis Vuitton Men’s SS23 show, it’s worth watching as not only does it show a number of looks from the house but it is also another tribute to Virgil Abloh. The show kicks off with HBCU FAMU’s Marching 100 who walks and performs (Enlightment, If You Are Not a Myth, Mighty Rattlers, Rattler to the Bone, Get Up, S.O.S.) from a rooftop to a “yellow brick road” which brings an array of models highlighting the looks for next season.
This collection and show focuses on the belief that imagination can heal, regenerate and uplift us all. The show takes place at the Cour Carrée of the Louvre. Kendrick Lamar performed Savior, Rich Spirit, Count Me Out, N95 seated next to Naomi Campbell s the looks hit the runway.
The balance between Louis Vuitton and culture in its impact on design has been one that has always existed with this fashion house.
