This weekend, Ana de Armas joined Louis Vuitton inventive director Nicolas Ghesquière on the Palais de l’Élysée, the place he was introduced with the insignia of Chevalier de la Légion d’honneur by French President Emmanuel Macron, forward of right now’s Spring/Summer time 2027 present.
As a Louis Vuitton ambassador, Ana dipped into the archives as soon as once more, deciding on a Louis Vuitton Spring 2015 gown for the event.
Greater than a decade later, there’s something remarkably present about this design. The excessive neckline, structured shoulders and shiny black end nonetheless have the futuristic high quality that outlined a lot of Nicolas Ghesquière’s early work for the home. This might simply have appeared in a current assortment with out trying misplaced.
And if, like me, your first thought was that this appears like a Jennifer Connelly gown, you’d be proper.
Jennifer Connelly wore the identical Louis Vuitton Spring 2015 design again in 2014 to the WSJ. Journal Innovator of the Yr Awards, though her model was sleeveless. She additionally dedicated to the runway styling with the metallic boots, as she all the time does.
Ana, as we might count on, took the much less adventurous route with easy black pumps. A Louis Vuitton clutch accomplished her look.
The truth that this gown nonetheless feels so present 12 years later says a lot about Ghesquière’s imaginative and prescient for Louis Vuitton.
