In a futuristic show scenography, set outside the Fondation Louis Vuitton, dynamic heroines graced the catwalk between mirror-columns, inspired from French artist Justin Morin’s artwork «Melted Bones».

Alternately showing close-ups and slow motions, this short film pays tribute to the details that make Nicolas Ghesquiere's wardrobe immediately recognisable: leather jackets, fluid sensual dresses in scarf prints, mohair sweaters,  zip-front moulded-hip jackets, gigantic pendant earrings, new bags, etc.

For this Autumn-Winter 2016 collection, Nicolas Ghesquière defines a heroine who is always on the move, whose elegance springs from her dynamism.

Zipped jackets, asymmetric embroidered mohair dresses, technical knitted dresses, leather or silk pieces… A mix of materials celebrates the Houses's "savoir-faire".

They say that culture is what remains when all else has been forgotten. The same goes for fashion culture. This autumn-winter collection moves through time, dissolving the borders of memory. It’s a wardrobe that affectionately revisits the past, invents a confident present and defines a fluid mutable future.

Photographer Tommy Ton let you take a closer look to really appreciate the details and refinement within a Louis Vuitton collection.

In this video, Nicolas Ghesquière's guests share their personal impression of the show and the signature details that will contribute to their allure over the next months.

The enigmatic location for the Autumn-Winter 2016 fashion show was comprised of a dome, a cube and a pyramid structure, built alongside the magnificent Fondation Louis Vuitton designed by Frank Gehry. The show universe was filled with tensions between seemingly opposing elements - future and retro, eternal and ephemeral, monument and ruin. The bespoke venue was filled with 57 silver pillars made from shattered mirrors and broken colonnades keeling over with concrete spilling out. A blue aquatic mood was offset by crisp white neon lighting and a constantly changing and evolving enviroment that reflected the story of the collection as it unfolded.
