[LOOK] Louis Vuitton presents Pharrell Williams' Spring/Summer 2026 Men's Collection in Paris

Jun 27, 2025
On June 25, 2025 (Japan time), Louis Vuitton unveiled its Spring/Summer 2026 men's collection by Men's Creative Director Pharrell Williams. This season's collection, titled "PARIS TO INDIA," is inspired by contemporary Indian sartorialism and embodies a world where city and nature, tradition and modernity resonate with each other.

The setting for the show, the Pompidou Centre, was outfitted with a set designed by the cutting-edge architectural firm Bijoy Jain (Studio Mumbai), perfectly blending with Pharrell's worldview. At its heart is a life-size reproduction of the ancient Indian board game "Snakes & Ladders," a metaphor for challenge and possibility.

A sun-bleached dandyism looms large. Fabrics faded as if worn over the years, and textures breathe new life into stripes and checks, creating a poetic presence. The color palette is inspired by India's unique natural landscapes and cityscapes, with purple replacing black and pale, sun-bleached hues providing a gentle visual experience.

Also, this season sees a fresh twist on Louis Vuitton's collaboration with the 2007 film, The Darjeeling Limited. For the first time, motifs created by Louis Vuitton for the film are incorporated into fashion, adding a touch of glamour to bags and clothing. Meanwhile, the tailoring remains soft and effortlessly effortless. Relaxed layering is present in jackets, vests and shirts, blending form-fitting comfort with effortless elegance.

A new denim color is a brown reminiscent of coffee beans. This color is achieved not by dyeing the fabric after use, but by using a special technique in the weave itself, which allows white threads to appear with wear, allowing you to enjoy a texture that deepens over time. Furthermore, the leathers and materials exude the suppleness that is characteristic of Pharrell, and items such as the Speedy P9 bag and the new LV Buttersoft sneakers are softly wrapped in luxurious exotic leather.

And don't miss the meticulous craftsmanship. Microbeads and intricate hand embroidery give the sets a jewel-like presence. Distressed, hand-drawn logos and archive-inspired stripes lend the collection a nostalgic charm.

The bags feature a rich variety of designs, including motifs from "The Darjeeling Limited" and ornate decorations inspired by Gaston-Louis Vuitton antiques. The collection also includes an unprecedented variety of designs, including pale ostrich and crocodile leather, scarf patterns, and the new "Speedy P9" woven with the "Tree of Life."

Footwear is carefully crafted to resemble time-honored pieces, including jazz shoes, the voluminous "LV Flip," and the airy "LV Bubble Derby." The "LV x Darjeeling Limited" motif is subtly incorporated into hiking boots and sneakers. Hats and socks exude a playful and crafted spirit, while chain belts adorned with semi-precious stones and LV frog buckles offer an unforgettable sparkle. Jewelry features guilloché and filigree work, while bangles and anklets in silver and gold embody Pharrell's signature delicacy. The sunglasses feature metal horns inspired by trunks, adding a subtle sparkle. The finale is punctuated by an original soundtrack produced by Pharrell. The music flows from the majestic "Miracle Worker" by Voices of Fire and l'Orchestre du Pont Neuf to "Yaara Punjabi," a collaboration with A.R. Rahman, to Clipse's "So Be It Pt. II" and "Get Right" by Dochy and Tyler, the Creator, creating an epic tale of intersecting cultures and connections. The collection powerfully embodies the spirit of Louis Vuitton as a "traveling maison," which is the essence of the brand.
