I'd summarize my thoughts on this by saying the collection was basically what Pharrell would wear in a week, and if you don't like his style, then you aren't going to like this collection. I don't see it as something that really stands out in LV menswear. The colors and patterns were bold and fun, but the garments weren't anything to write about, especially given how they were styled. I'm hoping his next collection focuses more on the execution, tailoring, craftsmanship, and styling.
I really enjoyed this video Hanan! I also read the NYT article and I thought the info on the making of the collection was really interesting. Thank you for including the history of LV/Pharrell’s placement as well. Please keep making TH-cam videos like this :)
Thank you for covering the fashion show. It was great Contact. Of course I love the collection 🖤 I’m in his choir, and was honored to sing for the finale of the fashion show in Paris.
I really enjoyed your sharing your thoughts. I was looking for some critique of it and voila. Nice production of the video. I didnt care too much for the collection. I found it too vanilla for my taste which is just that - my taste. Keep up the good work. Congrats on your first review. I enjoyed and appreciate it!
Great video! The modern day creative director no longer needs a background in the foundations of fashion or construction. As you can see, this more about insight, influence, marketing and understanding the pulse of the consumer/ customer. I watched the show and it delivered on all levels. Would I purchase an item? Yes. Please note, Pharrell does have is own clothing line called Billionaire Boys club.
Good video I really enjoyed your insight. I am a huge fan of Pharrell's music he is my favorite artist since 1997. I was hoping he would not mess it up, I am proud he did well.
Thoroughly enjoyed your analysis. I watched show twice. Second time w/o the music. Pharrell giving us wearable streetwear swagger, there's a little punk edge, football and modern business look. Though I'm not a fan of all the pixelated graphics, it still was fun. Most handbags were special and little ole me cannot afford one , I'm sad.
As an artist who does several things, each creation influences the other. I really like PW. I can see why he chose the fabrics that he did, but sadly, they were boring.
Mr, Williams has earned this position. He has in fact been collaborating and designing for years. If you are a creative person, you will be able to create. One does not need to complete a school to prove that. There are many artists that cross over into either the movie music or fashion industries . He has at least 20 years of designing. You may not like him, but he is talented.
U gave a lot of interesting insight and made me reevaluate the entire collection, which I didn't like at first. I tought the silhouettes looked like every and any other menswear collection rn mixed together (Dior, Gucci, Kenzo, Prada...). But after listening to your video I realized that you're right, it's better to play it safe at first, moreover the damouflage prints are definetly going to leave a huge impact on the LV by Pharrell zeitgeist, as u stated (even though I still think some of the damouflage looks are really ugly). You're definetly the most insightful review on this collection as of now. U got a new subscriber 😊
Sis.. the sound on this video is much better👍🏻 Thx for the review. Thankfully he did play it safe. A lot of nice pieces to buy🤷🏼♂️ The bags are really 🔥
I am hoping to see my son in the show tomorrow (Monday, Jan 15). Can you tell me when, and maybe how to catch a livestream…or the video? I am so excited! #pherrellwilliamsfashionshow
I don't like Monograms or Logo all over the clothes. That's why I don't like LV, Gucci. Dior and Fendi etc. Nowadays many "designers" use too much logo and monograms on clothing and very streetwear style!
@theAcer295 What is a woke afro show? 😆 although I'll prefer a more classic look and a real stylist, LVMH is looking to attract a younger consumer. It's not for me and that’s ok.
I thought it was LV-verse (because I didn't look that closely), as in a "witty" fashion take on the idea of the metaverse... I like the message of Lovers much more, but it shows that when the message isn't clear that people will form their own interpretations, often to the detriment of the original idea.
And I agree, it was a smart first collection. Lots of really recognisable, marketable pieces. This is Louis Vuitton after all and not some avant-garde or high fashion brand. It's all about the product and the signatures, and although I didn't really care for the camouflage, I thought the colourful take on the damier pattern at different scales felt fresh, memorable and thus collectible.
It is clear LV is furthering themselves from what they once represented. They are now more inclined into this pop side of fashion. I guess revenue comes ahead of authenticity, style and elegance.The collection wasn’t the best all got reduced to a woke Afro show the pieces aren’t impressive sorry someone has to said it.
'The bridge represents a bridge from Virginia to Paris'...this is the joke of LV now. Write a nonsensical story after you make some merch, stick the story on to it for no reason, because let's be real LV just needs to keep the cash machines counting. Yet no fashion professional can utter a peep because we will all need someone from the monolith that is LVMH. Sorry, the collection was weak, tacky, and derivative. Who can honestly say Pharrell looked good in that ill fitting suit that he kept pulling at like some ill fitting strapless gown. The sheer vulgarity of the clothes which really had no defense for their being in the world other than being in service to Pharrells ego and LVMHs bottom line, makes the whole thing a farce.
It was a great show, but the clothes was all flash and very little "real" clothes. I think it is for s limited audience, though the bags will definitely sell.
Not familiar with Pharrell's music or the person. These clothes are ridiculous and déclassé. LV is no longer about luxury or quality. I had LV products in the past - find them to be rather passé.
9:40 thank god. It would had been a huge act of hubris of him not to make a shut out for the LV team. Specially in his case. The Damouflage gimmick just felt ok it it had been 35 looks. But sis, 74? It seems to me such a waste of fabric for that of a simple graphic statement. And I can’t just simply look away from the fact that this whole Pharrel thing is just a billionaire safe move from LVMH to keep them at the top of the money fashion pyramid. That’s why Alessandro is no longer in Gucci
seem like the fashion world is being conquered by hip hop artist ,and its ironic that the hip hop street wear they are known for also invading luxe brand ,is this is good perhaps fr the point of view of the richest of the rich they would raise their brow fr the point of view of hip hop artist it spells money to them,ust an observation ,peace

Awww thank you love ❤️
This was a really well balanced video. Throughly enjoyed it
He did a great job and lvmh is about to make a grip off this collection
Thank you for covering the fashion show. It was great Contact. Of course I love the collection 🖤 I’m in his choir, and was honored to sing for the finale of the fashion show in Paris.
This was a surprisingly fun and informative piece of commentary! I loved your delivery point of view! 🎉
In Love with the collection. The Damoflauge speaks to me heavy

Gaystradamus strikes again! RiRi wore that exact look at the show
Great insight love your video analysis
Thank you, great critique!!!
😊😊👍i liked the collection as his debut at LV

Loved your review 🎉
good to see the video, wish you were in Paris
Great review 👏👏👏
My favorite piece were the shorts that seem to look like a skirt at the same time. LOVE the look
those are called culottes.

Ooh...and by the way: you are too fabulous to ever be straight 🤷🏼♂️💐

I didn’t dislike the pattern but I think they were too repetitive w it. Near the end was when it improved
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

The vers joke u did was very on top,,, XD

Nice review 👌
Insightful

I'm sorry but the LVERS logo is one of the laziest graphic design moments in a minute lmao
It has great impact .. and the show element was over the top … but it will age very quickly..
It was all Marc Jacob's to me, just more pixilated camo-street. Not a fan.
What is Pharrell's salary with Vuitton?
LV is for the new rich from the US and Asia
For me was a fail sis ... Pharrell has no business in fashion.
Period. It was basically just a business move for both LV and Pharrell - nothing to do with the fashion sigh
No 10gallon hat! 😞
💵♾️💃♾️💪💵
🥰❤️👍🏽

Agree.
Yup 100%
“woke afro” show…is sounding like *very* thinly veiled racism 😏. no one *has* to say anything, they *choose* to because they *want* to.

For me was a fail sis ..
Why? Did you expect more? 😊
Yes ma'am, it was
Amen sis. It was that Minecraft print for me - just didn’t get the vision for the whole collection at all
It was a great show, but the clothes was all flash and very little "real" clothes. I think it is for s limited audience, though the bags will definitely sell.
👀

All a bit too contrived for me.
Pharrell has no business in fashion
I hate it so much 😂
No design but a hideous pile of logo
Even 2023 collection is a trash compare to this one
It's shit, but this shit will sell, because all the logos all over everything.
"Felt like a Met Gala" was there but saw none of them 🥲only JARED LETO ❤🔥
😆
They were there, trust me! Jay, Bey, Kim they were all there!
Nice review.
