Pharrell Williams admitted he was surprised to be appointment creative director of Louis Vuitton menswear
Pharrell Williams is opening up about his appointment as creative director of Louis Vuitton menswear.
“That’s why this whole thing has just been so mind blowing,” Williams continued. “I’ve just been so touched by the whole thing … that someone would see me that way. But then there are certain parts within you that you know were there, but you’re just not even thinking about it in that way.” Abloh’s appointment was groundbreaking; he was the first Black American to serve as Creative Director of menswear in the brand’s over 150-year history. Williams admits that Abloh has “giant shoes” to fill but insists that’s not his goal. “I’m not here to fill my brother’s shoes,” he told the Business of Fashion. “My brother’s shoes are his shoes. And the steps that he took are his steps.”
“For me, the aspirations of people who look like me is to be economically free, to be educated, to have equal access to health care, equal access to representation,” Williams explained in the interview. He later remarked, “So that’s my job with this platform. To tell these stories and to inspire young or old, you can do it. What can’t you do? You can do it, too.”
