Today, Virgil Abloh's final collection for Louis Vuitton debuted in Paris. See every look here.
During his eight collection residency, Virgil Abloh turned the house of Louis Vuitton upside down and inside out. He made the exclusive inclusive. This afternoon in Paris apparently marked the final collection of that arc, and in the set at least it appeared to come full circle. The collection was named Louis Dreamhouse, and around the runway were scattered the upended elements of a house that had been hit by some enormous force of energy now spent.
The collection unfolded on 20 dancers and 67 models. Abloh’s great gift as both designer and lightning rod—masterfully to navigate an elusive commonality of commodity and community in order to service the former and uplift the latter—was posthumously still very much alive, even when referencing death. The inclusion of a Jim Phillips-esque Grim Reaper graphic was a breathtaking detail from a man designing his own legacy while gazing upon his own mortality. Bags came shaped as bouquets.
