Jay-Z, Beyoncé, Zendaya, J Balvin, Jaden Smith and Lewis Hamilton were among the 1,800 guests present in Paris for one of the most anticipated fashion shows of the year. Pharrell Williams unveiled his first menswear collection for Louis Vuitton on the city’s oldest bridge, Pont Neuf. Williams took over the position in February after the death of designer Virgil Abloh. In this show we check out the collection.
Also on the programme, the largest exhibition ever devoted to the Italian Renaissance at Paris’s Louvre museum. We also discover the work of Togolese artist Clay Apenouvon at the new Paris gallery giving pride of place to contemporary African art, and we visit one of Morocco’s most popular cultural events, the Gnaoua World Music Festival in Essaouira.
