Louis Vuitton Cruise 2025 Is a Balancing Act of Time and Style
Taking to Antoni Gaudi’s Hypostyle Room at Park Güell in Barcelona, Spain.
For 10 years Nicolas Ghesquière has been the women’s creative director at Louis Vuitton and even though he’s a decade in, the designer is still refining his image of the LV woman. Aside from core Spring/Summer and Fall/Winter collections, Cruise offerings have become increasingly important – taking to the corners of the Earth in an exhibition of beauty and fashion. So for the Louis Vuitton Cruise 2025 collection, the house headed to Antoni Gaudi’s Hypostyle Room at Park Güell in Barcelona, Spain.
The beauty in the latest collection rests in its balancing act performance. Traversing Spanish personalities and style notes, cultural inspirations and time, the collection meanders the fashion space with reverence for class and modernity. “I wanted to respect the place we are,” Ghesquière told Vogue Runway. “I love that this country is evocating a certain groundedness and some rigor, and in the meantime it’s about freedom, it’s about youngness, it’s about an extravagance somehow.”
The balancing act also came to life through a dazzling exhibition of silhouette and volume. Opening looks exhibited straight-cut, slight-oversized fused blazer dresses with tilted hats but quickly came in the procession of tops that danced with ruched detailing and caped elements. The same attention to warped detailing lent itself to select pants and billowing ruched skirts. Throughout the entire collection, Ghesquière’s play with shape was heavily complimented by the usage of various textures and fabrications, which has been a longtime signature.
