Pharrell Williams is slated to debut his first show as Louis Vuitton’s men’s creative director during Paris Men’s Fashion Week. The multi-hyphenate artist and producer took the helm of creative director of menswear at the iconic brand on February 15, 2023. Previously, the role was held by the influential creative, Virgil Abloh, who passed away in 2021.
Lauded for his personal sartorial sense, Pharrell’s fashion experience spans multiple brands and partnerships. He collaborated with Louis Vuitton on two separate projects in 2004 and 2008. In addition, he is a frequent collaborator with Adidas, Chanel and Tiffany and Co. He also launched Humanrace, a skincare brand, and co-founded the influential streetwear brands Billionaire Boys Club and Icecream.
Pharrell’s highly anticipated show for LV will take place on June 20, 2023, the first day of Paris men’s fashion week.
