The dynamic New York culture of the past – seventies, eighties, early nineties – is the inspiration of the Fall-Winter 2017 Louis Vuitton men’s collection.
“It’s uptown and downtown”, says Kim Jones, Louis Vuitton Men’s Artistic Director. “Artists and musicians, friends and heroes.”

The collection is an ode to the multitude of styles that co-exist and co-mingle in New York City. Inspiration comes from all walks of New York City life, spanning three decades and a multifaceted view of masculinity.

What emerges is a new attitude and a silhouette of relaxed elegance; wide pants, an eased fit, a sense of the undone. Smart, but street-smart. Polished tailoring combines with workwear, the fabrics of Vuitton’s heritage of French luxury – silk, cashmere, vicuña and alligator, cut into genuine utilitarian shapes.
