In a groundbreaking collaboration, music icon Pharrell Williams has joined forces with the irreverently innovative Tyler, the Creator to create a Louis Vuitton Capsule Collection that promises to redefine luxury fashion. Set to drop globally on March 21, this collection is a harmonious blend of Pharrell’s visionary aesthetic and Tyler’s distinctive flair.
Pharrell, who currently serves as Louis Vuitton’s menswear creative director, entrusted Tyler with the keys to the fashion house, allowing him to unleash his unbridled creativity. The result? The Craggy Monogram, a fresh take on the iconic Vuitton monogram motif.
Tyler’s hand-drawn design graces an array of pieces, from fleece jackets to collectible cereal bowls and even a limited-edition Courrier Lozine 110 travel trunk. The color palette—featuring rich browns, light blues, burgundy, and lime greens—adds an unexpected twist to the classic LV look.
Much like Tyler’s own GOLF clothing line, this capsule collection reflects his passions: pastries and dogs. The whimsical patterns and unexpected details pay homage to his unique perspective. From varsity jackets to cross-body bags, slacks to denim jackets, the collection exudes an irreverent charm that bridges streetwear and high fashion.
Pharrell, a longtime friend and collaborator of Tyler, praised his protegé’s willingness to push boundaries.
“Tyler doesn’t shy away from doing something interesting and different,” Pharrell shared. “Everything that Tyler does is thoughtful and authentic. We’ve done something completely new with this project that merges our two worlds, and the outcome is uniquely LV.”
Louis Vuitton describes their collaboration with Tyler as “an instinctive union.” It’s a meeting of minds—one that fuses the brand’s storied heritage with Tyler’s avant-garde sensibilities. The collection is more than just clothing; it’s an artistic expression that resonates with fans across the globe.
Tyler, the Creator, expressed his excitement on social media, sharing glimpses of the LV offices and marveling at the opportunity to work with Vuitton. His caption read, “A Louis Vuitton collection by Tyler Okonma.” The chessboard-inspired Craggy Monogram, the fruit of his creative labor, stands as a testament to his artistic vision.
In a world where fashion meets music, Pharrell and Tyler have orchestrated a symphony of style—one that will undoubtedly leave its mark on the fashion landscape. As the countdown to March 21 begins, fashion enthusiasts eagerly await the arrival of this boundary-pushing collaboration.
