Though Pharrell Williams’ debut collection as creative director of Louis Vuitton men’s will only come on June 20, yesterday, the multi hyphenate star provided an indelible glimpse at what his tenure will look like through an ad campaign starring Rihanna. In the visual, Rihanna wears a leather trench, decorated in what appears to be a pixelated version of the monogram pattern, and her baby bump is on full display (an ever effective maternity style move for the star). She is a vision of luxury on the go—the starlet carries an array of colorful LV monogram bags on her arms and even a coffee cup featuring a decorated holder sleeve. The fact that Rihanna is starring in the ad campaign for a men’s category exemplifies the growing fluidity in fashion. It is not the first time Louis Vuitton has played with traditional gender lines. In 2016, Jaden Smith appeared in a Louis Vuitton woman’s ad wearing a metal embroidered kilt. In neither case do the stars appear as if they’re wearing clothes meant for someone else or existing outside of the gender binary, but, instead, simply expressing themselves.
Juneteenth} is an annual holiday commemorating the end of slavery in the U.S., also known as “Emancipation Day” or “Freedom Day,” and is a time for reflection and celebration. As people across the country gather to commemorate the holiday today, Beyoncé found her own way to acknowledge the moment on the Amsterdam leg of her Renaissance world tour—she took to the stage wearing exclusively costumes created by Black fashion designers. “In honor of Juneteenth, everything I wore for Renaissance World Tour tonight was created exclusively by Black designers,” the singer wrote on Instagram on Sunday night. There are 51 dates on the blockbuster tour, and Beyoncé has worked with the stylists KJ Moody, Shiona Turini, Karen Langley, and British Vogue’s Julia Sarr Jamois to create a vast “tour drobe” with a disco inspired aesthetic, with new custom looks being introduced for different legs of the tour. The Black designers she championed on stage include Feben, Maximilian Davis for Ferragamo, Olivier Rousteing for Balmain, Ibrahim Kamara for Off White, LaQuan Smith, and her own designs for Ivy Park.
