5 of our fave moments from the Louis Vuitton show

Celebs braved the blazing sun to watch the Louis Vuitton Menswear Spring/Summer 19 collection yesterday in Paris. The collection was also Ghanaian-American designer Virgil Abloh’s debut since being announced as the fashion house’s artistic director.

Here’s what we loved from the show.

1. Rihanna. The outfit, the cross body bags, the sunglasses. A look!

2. Naomi Campbell and Chadwick Boseman. What’s better than the queen of the runway? The queen of the runway and the king of Wakanda. Faves!

4. The hug. Virgil’s walk down the runway made him emotional and his hug with an equally emotional Kanye West had us in our feelings.
