Louis Vuitton Spring 2024 Ready-to-Wear collection, runway looks, beauty, models, and reviews.
For his show today, Nicolas Ghesquière swapped the great museums of Paris for its greatest avenue, the Champs-Élysées, and the new Louis Vuitton space under construction there. Though new is perhaps not the right word. Most recently a bank, the imposing building was made for the 1900 Exposition Universelle as a hotel to house international guests visiting the world’s fair. The Grand and Petit Palais and the Gare D’Orsay were all built for the same occasion.
But it’s not just in temporality that it’s aligned. As anyone who’s passed by the building recently knows, travel is woven into the house’s DNA—its scaffolding is decorated to look like a Louis Vuitton steamer trunk. Ghesquière has his own romance with travel—he talked about the “enigmatic experience” of checking into a hotel—and he also understands its challenges. “Vuitton is a luxury brand but it’s about function, it provides a service: to travel better. Mobility is important in clothes,” he said.
Of course, there was nothing prosaic about what came down the runway, which was custom-built by James Chinlund to look like the inside of a hot air balloon. Day-to-day is not Ghesquière’s style; in fact, more and more his clothes at Louis Vuitton bear the handcrafts of couture, but the clothes here were designed to be as light as possible.
At the end he showed a group of jackets whose workmanship has to be seen up-close to be appreciated. Though they looked to have been made in tweed bouclé, it was a far finer material laser-cut to give it a slightly ruffled texture. Extraordinary is the right word for it.
