It’s expected that the ButterSoft sneakers will launch as a part of Louis Vuitton’s Fall/Winter 2025 collection later this year, although no date has been confirmed yet.
Pharrell has been gaining accolades over the years initially for his musical prowess but has moved on to making major moves that are being noticed in the fashion world. In November 2024, GQ magazine announced that the Virginia native was selected as the publication’s Designer of the Year. The popular recording artist has been at the helm of Louis Vuitton for around two years after the company named him to replace the beloved and ultra-talented Virgil Abloh, who died over three years ago on November 28, 2021.
He has his hands on many items and campaigns with Louis Vuitton, which gives him the freedom to tap into his creativity that isn’t solely based on what made him popular, which was his music. He appreciates being able to utilize his God-given talents and has to be reminded by the brand that he is “supposed to be in this position.”
