Forum Members Review Nicolas Ghesquière’s Shanghai-Staged Pre-Fall 2024 Louis Vuitton Collection

Nicolas Ghesquière staged his Pre-Fall 2024 collection for Louis Vuitton in Shanghai on April 18, ushering a whole plethora of A-list guests like Cate Blanchett, Regina King and Jennifer Connelly inside the Long Museum located in the West Bund district of China’s second largest city. The show marked the first under Louis Vuitton’s Voyager Show format (collections unveiled across the globe and paying homage to local setting and culture). Ghesquière’s latest was very much a celebration of youth and coming-of-age. The celebrated designer collaborated with artist Sun Yitian for the occasion, with the Beijing-born painter’s animated paintings splashed throughout the 57-look lineup – a mashup of sophisticated streetwear, geometric silhouettes and and voluminous gowns.

Read below the reactions of theFashionSpot’s forum members:

“This is so good. He always has my respect, nobody did a Pre-Fall collection with this level of dedication.” [Kanzai]

“Love the remix of past collection but done more wearable, which makes it fresh.” [PDFSD]

“Yes to everything. This is so good. And to be this very dedicated with lazor vision is wonderful to see. NG hasn’t lost his cool one bits. I love the references he drew. Quite expansive ideas but they all come together nicely. So many cute pieces for brand ambassadors to wear. Commercial but well styled. The silk printed pieces makes me actually feel like huge print is okay.” [TaylorBinque]

“This is how you reference the destination without being so literal and putting their flag or landscapes in the clothes. Just by knowing how they dress and by knowing their vibe. I’m not sure if it was deliberate or not, the loud colors, the mismatching clothing but still looking put together.” [tourbillions]

“Oh! That’s good. A lot of pieces, a lot of things to grab and mix. And it’s surprisingly cohesive despite the fact that the collections referenced are quite different. I think the real success of this collection is that it’s still very commercial.” [Lola701]

“It’s a great collection. And he picks the right location for the show. What I think was really fabulous about this show is despite being a commercial collection Nicolas still makes it fashionable and fun. He just proved that a pre-collection show doesn’t have to be a parade of merchandise, you can make it fun and exciting.” [THD96]

“I think its a fabulous collection. NG has formed a clear concise Louis Vuitton vision. The finale pieces are just glorious.” [Nimsay]
