<div><br/></div><p>Many wondered on which direction Louis Vuitton will be taking after the tenure of the late Virgil Abloh, the fashion house’s Men’s Artistic Director who passed away last year. Will there be an immediate replacement? Are they taking a full 180 change? Basing it on the recently concluded Men’s Spring/Summer 2023 show in Paris, it turns it out, they are not going very far just yet. The newest show was designed by the studio team of Louis Vuitton, a team who worked closely with Abloh.</p><div><br/></div><p>The collection started with a Tallahassee-based marching band beaming music that set the mood of the show. It opened a child-like box of wonders of pieces that toy with our memories of childhood. Origami and paper planes incorporated in looks as hats and bowties, cartoon prints on coats, building blocks beadings, and playdough textures—they were all there and such a nostalgic thing to see. </p><div><br/></div><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:950px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/56761632-ccd0-4c05-ac15-f1f2731c31d2_22.jpg" style="width:950px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" alt=""/></span></span></div><div><br/></div><p>It wasn’t just a show but a playground. There were inspirations of Virgil all over: paint-bucket hues, complicated silhouettes, over-the-top presentation. It was such an inspired collection, all seemingly still an one to a legacy.</p><div><br/></div><p>Kendrick Lamar, sitting as a guest while performing, gave life to the looks with easy, cool tracks that blend seamlessly with the show. It’s a full collaboration, the looks, the music, the experience. This is all because of the timeless core of the Louis Vuitton studio of creatorship, craftsmanship, and showmanship.</p><div><br/></div><div><br/></div><div class="youtube-iframe"><iframe width="400"
