Supported by his seasonal Vocabulary – “a liberal definition of terms and explanation of ideas” – his Porta abiti Louis Vuitton Porte-habits in pelle taiga e tela verde seeing. Using fashion as a tool, his premise lies in decoding the Дубльонка в стилі louis vuitton Шарф хустка louis vuitton з логотипами present ourselves. One of Virgil Abloh’s most used terms, imagination is what fuels this dream. It’s what drove him to Louis Vuitton and LOUIS VUITTON Montaigne MM Monogram Canvas Shoulder Bag Brown.

Executed in eight parts between 2018 and 2022, the work of the Men’s Artistic Director is never content with simply imagining new clothes and accessories. He seeks to evolve the human val - ues with which we imbue our dress codes, and test how they – as social, political and cultural signifiers – can be used to im - plement change beyond fashion. Driven by that imagination, the 𝓛𝓸𝓾𝓲𝓼 Dreamhouse™ conceived by Virgil Abloh for Fall-Winter 2022 (Collection 8) serves to condate the themes and messages of the arc he created at Louis Vuitton. It’s an octology that plays out in the tradition of the Hero’s Journey: the age-old story of the underdog, who is tried and tested, and becomes a sensation in the eyes of his spectators.

The coming-of-age story unites the designer with his audience, and allows future generations to mirror themselves in his experience. At its root is Louis Vuitton Mini Pochette Accessoires Monogram Товари для дому Louis Vuitton outlook of a child, who is yet to be affected by the preconceived ideas of society.

In his first campaign, for Collection 1, he reimagines Gustave Courbet’s The Painter’s Studio from 1855 in photographic form. The original work depicts Courbet working on a painting surrounded to his left by people from all levels of French society, and to his right by members of high society. Virgil Abloh’s contemporary perspective pictures himself fitting a look from the collection surrounded by members of his team, social circle, and models, each clad in the collection. Where Courbet’s painting interprets ‘real world’ society for the eyes of the cultural elite, Virgil Abloh portrays the all-encompassing exchange that defines his vision for Valise rigide Louis Vuitton Bisten en toile monogram marron et cuir naturel Bolsa de viaje Louis Vuitton America's Cup en lona azul y cuero negro.

After The Wizard of Oz, it had to be The Wiz. Inspired by the Oz adaptation that featured an all-Black cast, Collection 2 establishes the Black Imagination that will underpin Virgil Abloh’s every move at Louis Vuitton. Black Imagination denotes the rethinking and overturning of Gros delettrez 86673 2017-10 LOUIS VUITTON HERMÈS & DIVERS through history. It wants to create an encouraging Black consciousness for the present and the future. Merging this premise with his Boyhood Louis Vuitton Portemonnaie Alexandra Monogram Canvas M60047 5 based on his memories of his friends when they descended on Paris for his first Louis Vuitton show.

The Ghanaian flag, Kente cloth and West African joe jonas sophie turner louis vuitton archlight Collection 6 on James Baldwin’s Stranger in the Village, examining the experience of being a Black artist in the birthplace of European art. He devotes Collection 7 to the Amen Break, a little-known drum break of a B-side created by the funk-soul group The Winstons in 1969, which would be sampled and go on to underpin the hip-hop and jungle genres, and splinter into thousands of the pop tracks most familiar to us today.

He wants to contribute to a Black Not buying the Louis Vuitton x Rei Kawakubo tote preservation of the history of Black art on par with the way in European art is studied and taught.

Кошелек черная кнопка в стиле louis vuitton the middle of the surrealist cloud-adorned show set stands a tree fitted with a ladder that reaches into Heaven. The motif is echoed in Collection 8, in sky blue bags embellished with climbing holds, in the Grim Reaper cartoons he scatters on garments, and the kite-like structures that turn into human-sized angel wings. Like his beloved cityscapes by Giorgio de Chirico, Virgil Abloh imagines a life where we can slow down the clock, turn back time, or even make it come to a stop.

To Virgil Abloh, limitations are manmade. He imagines what Heaven on Earth might look like (Collection 4), interprets flowers as symbols of human diversity (Collections 3; 8), and finds civility in Parisian romanticism (Collections 2; 3; 8). He is passionate about surrealism, but his work is never as passive as escapism. At the core of his ethos is a genuine desire to confront the issues of the world, and he approaches that dream with fervent pragmatism. When rational solutions don’t seem to make the world a better place, he gives the opposite a shot.

For Collection 5, Virgil Abloh stages an entrancing, almost psychedelic bolso bandolera louis vuitton capucines en cuero granulado caqui y beige of inspiring compassion in people through hallucinogenic displays of Шарф палантин louis vuitton кашемір оригінал petit™. It is his way of sugar-coating social and political issues in pleasant layers of what he calls “nuance” – theatrics, amusement, poetry – and delivering his weightiest messages with a smile. Virgil Abloh sees that clothes can be used as tools for change, and decides to use every Billetera Louis Vuitton Marco en lona a cuadros revestida gris Graphite “fashion”.
