It's official, folks! Singer and fashion designer Pharrell Williams has been appointed as Louis Vuitton’s new Men’s Creative Director. His first collection for Louis Vuitton will be revealed this June during the Men's Fashion Week in Paris.
Williams is a visionary whose creative universes expand from music to art, and to fashion – establishing himself as a cultural, global icon over the past twenty years.
