James Reid lassos his chosen looks as he reveals his favorite fashion moments from Pharrell Williams’ Louis Vuitton FW24 menswear show
The Louis Vuitton sun shined bright amongst the people, but nothing shined brighter than the fashion itself. The Maison’s menswear line, under the creative direction of Pharrell Williams on his third collection, brings forth its relationship with the Wild West and, most importantly, the indigenous. Among the attendees is James Reid, and the music producer chooses his top looks.

Starting with the show’s curtain-raiser, Reid couldn’t help but admire the white blanket coat adorned with fringe and appliqué detailing. Paired with denim jeans and a poplin shirt boasting turquoise buttons, the ensemble was crowned with a monogram speedy 40. James remarks, “The fringe on the trench, I thought was a cool touch. I love the pop of turquoise, too.”

Moving to a casual workwear vibe, Reid applauded an indigo trucker denim jacket embellished with floral embroideries. Complemented by a lace shirt, beige trousers, and an off-white ribbon with silver studs, the look was sealed with a tan nubuck LV speedy 40. “The detail on the jacket was so good! And the styling was on point,” quips the discerning music producer.

Next up was the whimsical white double-breasted suit set, embracing tribal influences through beaded patches. The cropped blazer, felt cowboy hat, and the Louis Vuitton touch of ostrich green rider boots and camel horseshoe bag struck a chord with Reid. “I like how the blazer is cropped just right. And again, it’s all about the details.”

Reid appreciated a sleek, black suit, highlighting turquoise buttons as subtle yet vibrant accents. Accompanied by Texan boots with silver details and a black crocodile monogram P90 speedy 50, he muses, “I like how sleek the look is but still fits the theme with the turquoise details to accentuate the jacket and look.”

Wrapping up his roundup, Reid latched onto a standout piece: a camel suede crocodile leather collarless workwear jacket with turquoise detailing and matching trousers. Paired with camel rider boots and complemented by red and brown archival monogram book bags, it was a finale that truly lassoed attention at the show. “The color, the material, and especially the silhouette,” He emphasizes. “I’m liking collarless jackets all lately and flared pants.”
James Reid spotlighted the runway that captured the Western charm and indigenous influences of Louis Vuitton’s FW24 menswear show. His carefully curated selection of standout looks mirrored both the Maison’s progressive narrative and his evolving style preferences. Reid’s insights are admired, reflecting the spirit of the collection and celebrating often the unnoticed. We can only wonder when he’ll wear them next.
