Louis Vuitton Men’s Creative Director Pharrell Williams has unveiled the Pre-Fall 2026 Collection, taking the House’s LVERS ideology on a conceptual stroll through Central Park. The collection paints a portrait of the microcosm of New York park life, where activities from tennis to skating shape the wardrobe of the urban oasis.
The collection introduces a “pre-dandyism” attitude, expressing a youthful, laid-back elegance. Classic tailoring is presented with louche, relaxed lines and spontaneously paired with contrasting loungewear staples, mixing in the New York prep lifestyle with the grit of the city. This code-swapping includes reconstructed gentlemen’s cloths and workwear crafted from fine tailoring materials. Denim pieces adorned with paint splatters nod to the community of artists that inhabit the city.
Outerwear is a key focus. The collection features a technical hooded blouson in a Prince of Wales Monogram check and rugged Monogram Surplus pieces. The summer-centric half of the collection introduces light tailoring like relaxed linen suits alongside boxer shorts and loungewear, some crafted in striped silk jacquard. Accessories embrace the park theme. Items include a Keepall with detachable tennis racket covers, a ping-pong racket cross-body bag, and novelty milk carton bags in Classic Monogram canvas. Footwear ranges from the bold LV Tilted sneaker in patchwork denim to refined LV Soft sneakers, completing a collection that is both sophisticated and joyously practical.
Stay tuned for the release of the collection arriving soon.
