Paris Men'S Wear Week: Louis Vuitton: Interpretation Of The New Wizard Of Oz

Virgil Abloh is good at looking at the long term.

He believed that he could win the game by playing steady and steady.

"When a thing is done for a long time, your next slow motion will have a pull," he said in the studio of Louis Vuitton. "I am doing everything on a parallel track, slow and steady, watching everything pile up."

So what happens next, according to Virgil, "my term in Louis Vuitton will be a study of different stages of being a man."

He claimed that when he realized that this series was about youth, he had a flash of inspiration after his LV debut.

Perhaps the wizard of Oz is a fable about adolescence.

Seasonal variation.

Abloh's second series, which he calls the second part, has been upgraded from the wizard of Oz to the new wizard of oz.

The movie produced by Quincy Jones is the end of the Black Renaissance era, played by Diana Ross, while Michael Jackson plays the scarecrow.

Ah, yes, MJ.

Abloh insisted that he even thought of the new wizard of Oz before contacting MJ.

However, on his Louis Vuitton journey, through a seven stage of man, what is more provocative focus than the boy who changed the world?

Abloh called him "the ultimate Mousika". "We watched him grow up, but he was always a child."

In his elaborate briefing (I must say, this is a very good book), he talked about the extraordinary power of Jackson. "Every jacket, gloves, socks and hats have become an awesome tool."

Which fashion designer will not sell his soul to the devil for this power?

But Abloh is a hardworking student.

"I haven't counted anything in my work for a while," he insisted. But he prepared for the second show for Louis Vuitton.

With the shameless technique of the greatest performer (by the way, the best selling album of the year), it was built up one by one.

The scene reproduces the background of Michael Jackson "Billie Jean". At the end, Dev Hynes stroll around the guitar while walking along the stone road illuminated by lights.

A young dancer, dressed in purple, rolled around in the same street, stopped and looked at the sky for a while, then went on, and the boy grasped the dream.

The live band played "Wanna Be Startin" Somethin.

Alboh also dreams.

It was the luxurious craft of Louis Vuitton studio that made him extraordinary, just like wearing gloves and Michael Jackson in white socks.

A plaid shirt that is full of crystal?

"Raindrops," Abloh said so.

A large number of crystals, such as the Milky way, are luxuriously embedded in the jacket on display.

The classic Monogram pattern of Louis Vuitton is cleverly printed on cashmere twill.

Perhaps the ancient Egyptian pleated skirt worn by MJ in "remember time" MV inspired this long and smooth pleated skirt.

It is definitely the song "We Are The World" that inspired him, with the flags of the inlaid leather and collage and the design of thousand birds. Actually, it is the one million small continent in Africa (the song's lyrics are printed on the shirt).

These passionate ideas really make the whole series glittering, though you can easily feel that Abloh's heart is not here.

"I may belong to the street, but tailoring is the story I want to tell. I want my young supporters to get out of the world of sports shoes."

Honey, don't do it at the price of Louis Vuitton.

However, there are many other lofty aspirations in the world.

The yellow brick road has always been the most desirable destination in American mythology.

Michael Jackson sang and danced to Ozzy.

Virgil Abloh is following the fashion line.
