First shown to the world in June of last year, Louis Vuitton’s Men’s spring collection captured our collective attention and made its way into the hearts of some. While the late Virgil Abloh’s time at Louis Vuitton has been cut short, fans that adored him and his work will be able to snag the last pieces from his legacy throughout this upcoming year. With boundary-breaking ideals rooted in inclusion and streetwear, Abloh’s newest collection is said to celebrate the diversity of various subcultures that fashion draws upon today.
At first glance, the collection is chock full of color, with bright, bold hues taking center stage and incredible stylistic detailing complimenting them. Bags from the collection include new iterations of Louis Vuitton icons like the Keepall and the Soft Trunk alongside interesting new silhouettes as well. The bags, along with other pieces from the collection, are captured in new campaign images that explore the symbolic values of both rave culture and martial arts. Shot by Tim Walker, the images highlight various archetypes, conveying each’s cultural context. The campaign, like the collection, is rich in detail, complemented by iconic elements of rave culture like neon colors, bright lights, and more.

Louis Vuitton Men’s Spring 2022
What does this mean? I don’t understand the context. “Abloh’s newest collection is said to celebrate the diversity of various subcultures that fashion draws upon today.”
I assume it means the line draws inspiration from style trends that are associated with different groups of people/circles. If you think hipster, urban, cottage core, goth, club kid, these groups are all distinguished by their own specific aesthetic. I’m older, so my examples are probably dated, but I think they serve the purpose.
I like anything neon especially in still shots so this is super fun for me 💚💙💗💜
I am loving the bag with the outdoor scene. I hope that is truly what I am seeing.
Nice
