Subvert Your Senses: Louis Vuitton Men’s Spring 2025 Capsule
Can you see with your ears? Pharrell Williams can.
With the Spring 2025 Capsule Collection, the Louis Vuitton multi-hyphenate brings synesthesia — a neurological phenomenon in which one sensation stimulates another, parallel perception (seeing shapes while listening to music, for instance, or associating colours with numbers) — to life. The collection is drenched in vibrant hues, packed with electric gradients and patterned embroidery. Here, clothing celebrates creativity.


Thanks to a diverse range of fabrics, colours, and silhouettes, the collection plays with our senses; texture, for example, is equally concerned with touch and sight. To see what we’re talking about, take a good look at the photo on the left — texture reigns supreme. Subtle peaks and valleys bring substance to neutral tones, adding intrigue to mid-season staples. The rain jacket on the right, meanwhile, captures the dreamlike quality of synesthesia. Painted with an acidic array of neons, the garment puts a low-exposure filter on its rainbow palette. The rainbow leaves a dark imprint behind, recalling the surreal sensation of imagined colour.
Seasonal dress codes intersect, too. For the Men’s Spring 2025 Capsule, Louis Vuitton looks at menswear through a kaleidoscope, blurring the borders of traditional categories (namely casual, prep, formal, and streetwear) to create a transitional wardrobe. A distinct flash of formalwear emerges in the relaxed black suit, for example, yet the trousers’ flowing, loose cut infuse a casual confidence that’s unmistakably inspired by streetwear. Elegance meets ease.
Citing an “intuitive correlation in a mid-season wardrobe that transforms music into colour and form,” Louis Vuitton subverts its traditional motifs. A black varsity jacket reworks the beloved Monogram pattern with suede detailing. Elsewhere, a multicoloured take on the LV Blason Monogram pattern covers denim jackets and trousers with embroidery.
Never one to skip out on accessories, Louis Vuitton’s smattering selection of sunglasses, bags, and hats tie the collection together. ‘Super Vision’ shades sport gradient lenses, creating a technicolour experience that comes in a slew of stylish frames. To double down on the apparel’s auditory inspiration, there’s even a Music Player bag. Meanwhile, iridescent bag charms capture the collection’s cheeky, whimsical spirit, taking the shape of turtles, crabs, and — naturally — an MP3 ‘music pouch.’
