didn't see this coming - Pharrell to follow in Virgil Abloh's footsteps as Creative Director of Louis Vuitton

I don't even know what to make of this

Quote from killingtime1934

well he has a good ear for music, maybe that translate to fashion

his stuff that's already in the fashion world is already well known, it all looks like American versions of A Bathing Ape, and I guess he's got collabs with Adidas (which aren't for me)

and his personal style has always been great

but idk, LV is a big big house and it's not streetwear (I get that they said the same stuff when Virgil came on too) but we'll see. I love Pharrell as a musician and producer so I'm excited

also to add: I have a sneaking suspicion that Kanye would have been considered for this job had he not completely shat the bed

I mean, acclaimed producer/rapper who also delves into fashion? It adds up, Kanye would be fuming at this news

EDIT: that, and Martine Rose and Wales Bonner turned the job down
