For Louis Vuitton’s Pre-Fall 2025 collection, creative director Pharrell takes inspiration from a trans-Atlantic journey, blending reimagined styles with a Dandy-inspired aesthetic.
The collection features a range of evening looks set against a vibrant sunset backdrop, showcasing luxurious fabrics and sleek, refined shapes. Glamorous tailoring and classic sportswear are highlighted through lustrous moire fabrics, like a deep navy double-breasted blazer paired with sharply pleated khaki trousers. This collection evokes Old Hollywood charm, with shawl-collared coats, long peignoirs, and driver jackets adding to its elegance.
These elevated designs are balanced by more casual pieces, such as a denim shirt-and-shorts set paired with a patterned jacket featuring sailboat motifs reimagined into classic Louis Vuitton patterns. The maritime influence continues with collarless tweed sailing jackets, a favorite style of Pharrell, and handbags shaped like lifebuoys and sea creatures.
The setting shifts to a daytime scene in the Gulf of Mexico, where the models showcase a fresh mix of bright pastels and jewel tones. The colors are reminiscent of American prep culture, with matching bowling sets and silky loungewear featuring bold stripes and neon Louis Vuitton monograms. Raffia accents provide a natural touch, seen in a collarless jacket with brown leather trims and a sheer beige tee woven into the House’s signature Damier checkerboard pattern.
Bags, including duffles, totes, and backpacks, feature tropical motifs on the classic brown checkerboard pattern, with additional designs echoing the bold stripes and raffia seen throughout the clothing. Raffia visors and caps featuring a resort-inspired LV logo in pastel colors complete the looks.
