Louis Vuitton creative director Nicolas Ghesquière has taken a stand against realDonaldTrump.
Three days after the U.S. president joined Bernard Arnault, chairman and chief executive officer of LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton, to inaugurate a new Louis Vuitton leather goods workshop in rural Alvarado, Tex., the brand’s artistic director of women’s collections seems to have distanced himself from the highly publicized event.

I am a fashion designer refusing this association #trumpisajoke #homophobia,” the designer wrote in a post on Instagram below the cover of the 1984 Evelyn Thomas club hit “High Energy.
Neither LVMH nor Louis Vuitton posted any images of the event on their Instagram accounts. Being publicly associated with Trump in a week where the political chaos surrounding the U.S. president appeared to reach new heights always carried the risk of alienating some LVMH customers, though online calls to boycott Vuitton have gained limited traction so far.
Responding to Ghesquière’s post, model Teddy Quinlivan wrote: “Thank you for standing on the right side of history.” Ghesquière has frequently used transgender models in his recent shows and campaigns. The Trump administration is seeking to repeal a series of laws and regulations preventing discrimination against transgender people in fields including healthcare and the workplace.
