In a clash of creative titans, Louis Vuitton has unleashed its Spring ’24 Men’s capsule collection, and the mastermind behind it? None other than the inimitable Tyler, The Creator. Known for his artistic flair, Tyler’s collaboration with Louis Vuitton seamlessly blends his signature preppy sophistication with the refined dandy style curated by LV’s creative director, Pharrell Williams.
Pharrell Williams, expressing his thoughts on the collaboration, stated, “this collaboration is unique to Louis Vuitton because it’s a natural extension of our LVERS philosophy, building on our network of incredible artists and creatives.” He praised Tyler’s specific touch embedded in each piece, emphasizing the inspiration drawn from Tyler’s dedication to his craft for this Spring collection.
The collection itself boasts trans-seasonal silhouettes immersed in the vibrant colors and functionalities of spring. The pièce de résistance is a ruggedly hand-drawn Craggy Monogram by Tyler, gracing a range of garments from a chocolate down jacket to a vanilla windbreaker and even denim dungarees. Loose chinos, pleated shorts, graphic shirts, and golf-inspired pieces nod to Tyler’s own Golf Wang brand, complete with a branded checkerboard golf bag.
Indulging in leisure luxury, the collection features leather slippers and a new LV Flower sandal adorned with LV letters reminiscent of delectable icing. For the eclectic touch, Tyler introduces a hand-sketched travel chessboard, accompanied by a matching cereal bowl and spoon.
Tyler, the Creator, humorously sums up the essence of the collection, saying, “My main focus was making things I would wear all the time…I dress the same in a meeting as I do a performance or grocery store trip, so hand drawing the monogram felt like the perfect balance to me.”
