For Fall-Winter 2026, Louis Vuitton brought men home — not to ours, but to Pharrell Williams’ vision of the future of timeless living. And in this world, a man’s bag or trunk is de rigueur.

Pre-show teasers on Instagram hinted at a pared-back vision, while the show invitation— a pair of embossed Vachetta leather slippers, offered an early cue to the collection’s focus. As Louis Vuitton described it: “Enduring details. A demonstration of texture, durability, and ingenuity, Louis Vuitton’s Studio Homme unveils timeless textiles — transforming light, heat, and movement into fabrics engineered to endure. And travel to the future.” That idea was reflected in the outdoor setting at the Fondation Louis Vuitton, where an oversized wooden freight crate, stencilled with ‘Louis Vuitton Fall-Winter 26 Men’s Collection’, set the stage.

Inside, models moved through the ‘DROPHAUS,’ an architectural project brought to life by Bureau Betak — “a vision of timeless living imagined by Pharrell that blends design, craft, and the human hand — revealing a glimpse into the imminent future of the Louis Vuitton dandy.” This glass-sided contemporary home embodied the collection’s theme, with perfectly curated wardrobes lining the interior and Louis Vuitton details — from books and records to carefully placed accessories. Rather than a traditional runway entrance, models appeared to make themselves at home, lingering inside before drifting out onto the manicured garden runway beyond.

As always, accessories were at the forefront. Pharrell’s love affair with the Speedy continues — this season in fresh colourways of the P9 Bandoulière, alongside Reversible styles, stacked designs, and elevated exotic editions. Layering was a defining styling motif: mini bags nested inside larger silhouettes, some attached directly, others paired or worn together for a playful, unexpected effect. Many pieces were styled open, lending a lived-in energy to the runway.

Here’s a closer look at the standout bags. . .
The Reversible Speedy P9
What seemed like a standard Speedy P9 held an unexpected surprise — The Reversible Speedy P9. This style features a deep burgundy calfskin body on one side and a metallic silver panel on the other, joined by an exposed zipper detail that allows the bag to be fully reversed for two distinct looks.

Another variation expands the concept but adds a contrasting quilted interior, giving the design added texture and depth. This style was showcased in burgundy paired with caramel-toned leather, and another in lime green with cream quilting. These bags were styled twisted on the runway to reveal both their fabrications.

Rounding out the experimental lineup, a playful bag-in-a-bag concept made its debut. The larger Speedy houses a smaller version that emerges from its zipper opening, creating a stacked silhouette. The joined bags retain the Speedy’s defining features, including two zippers, two sets of top handles, and a pair of luggage tags. Carried lopsided on the runway, this inventive iteration was presented in metallic silver and a tonal tan shade.

New Speedy P9 Colorways
Beyond the reversible designs, Pharrell also refreshed the classic Speedy P9 Bandoulière lineup with a range of new colorways. Crafted in the signature soft calfskin with Vachetta leather trim, the bag appeared in lime green with tonal Monogram, alongside a sleek black iteration with matching leather accents.
Tonal variations further expanded the lineup, swapping the usual contrasting white Monogram for a more subtle, tone-on-tone effect. These understated designs debuted in burgundy bright white, and off-white, each paired with matching leather trim.

Exotic Speedy
Pharrell continued his love of exotics with the Fall-Winter 2026 collection. The Speedy Bandoulière 18 appeared in several snakeskin shades, including lime green, rich ruby red, and off-white.

A larger style was rendered in matte crocodile, presented in So Black with tonal hardware and with a contrasting glossy black rope-chain strap. Adding a more subtle exotic touch, another Speedy appeared in soft tan suede, accented with shiny crocodile top handles.

Rounding out the lineup, a deep navy iteration—likely embossed crocodile—featured perforated detailing, lending the design a sporty edge.

Sparkle Speedy & Keepall
Sparkle extended beyond the ready-to-wear, with an all-black Speedy arriving on the runway, fully encrusted in a sparkling finish. Accented with matching black leather trim and hardware, the bag shimmered under the lights.
Another shimmering addition was the Keepall, reimagined in soft beige suede with tonal leather handles and trim, adorned with a cascade of matching crystals.

Reversible Keepall
Flip it and reverse it — Pharrell applied the same reversible design principles from the new Speedy P9 bags to the Keepall. Crafted in soft tan suede, the bag was carried on the runway by a single top handle, its open zipper revealing the internal construction and a sealed Monogram-lined interior.

Keepall Cargo
Completing the Keepall lineup, is the reimagined Keepall Cargo. Adding a touch of boxy structure, this Keepall Cargo features reinforced leather corners while retaining the classic Bandoulière straps and top handles, complemented by a nylon-printed shoulder strap and chain. Presented in Monogram canvas, the style was also shown in the So Black leather lineup.

Jet-Black Leather Collection
Echoing the soft leather lineup of Pharrell’s Spring-Summer 2025 collection, Fall-Winter 2026 revisits the concept and extends the minimalist approach. Forsaking Monogram entirely, these pieces are crafted from smooth jet-black leather with tonal logos subtly heat-stamped across the body. The understated finish was presented across the Keepall Bandoulière, Nile, Keepall Cargo, Discovery Backpack, and a new hobo-style silhouette.

Bringing a technical edge to the lineup with a nod to tech bro life, a duo of matte black leather bags with contrasting glossy Monogram closed the show. Presented in the Keepall 45 and 25 sizes, these designs feature orange tab accents and utilitarian touches. The Keepall 45 includes a front mesh pocket and a printed nylon strap, while the mini 25 — too compact for an external pocket, is equipped with an attached matching key holder.

Vachetta Leather Line Up
Vachetta leather dominated Fall-Winter 2026 – literally, from the ground up. The show invite was a pair of Vachetta slippers setting the tone for a collection where the material appeared on everything from Ready-To-Wear tabs to LV emblems. The bags went further: both the Keepall 45 and an envelope clutch were rendered entirely in aged Vachetta, complete with the Maison’s iconic yellow stitching and red edge painting.

The Reimagined Alma
For Fall-Winter 2026, the 91-year-old Alma gets a face — or rather, a strap — lift of sorts. Retaining its signature curved silhouette, the bag preserves its leather base, but with a twist: the usual short, tubular dual top handles have been replaced with considerably longer, unstructured handles, stitched directly into the body of the bag rather than attached with D-rings. This allows them to be draped or manipulated for a relaxed, versatile carry. In worn Monogram canvas with aged Vachetta trim, the bag has an archival feel.

Burgundy Leather Editions
If the jet-black leather styles aren’t to your taste, the collection also offers rich burgundy options – each finished with silver-tone hardware, and a matching heatstamp logo. These were presented across two styles: the reimagined Alma with elongated top handles, and a new design reminiscent of the Louis Vuitton Samur saddle bag. This piece retains the original’s signature leather closure, threading through a loop and secured with an adjustable buckle, while its softened structure and short detachable top handle gives it a more contemporary feel.

Shopping Bag
The luxe Shopping Bag, introduced in Pharrell’s debut collection, returns reimagined in fresh colorways and fabrications. A smaller iteration appeared on the runway in a beige shade reminiscent of Vachetta leather, crafted in matte croc with elevated gold-hardware lettering. For the classic options, the new lineup includes light yellow, baby blue, and glossy Vernis versions rounded out the collection sage green and navy blue.

Christopher Backpack
The Christopher Backpack stood out in vibrant green, blue, yellow, and red — crafted in the same soft calfskin with aged Vachetta trim seen on the Speedy P9 Bandoulière. Could this be an extension of Pharrell’s P9 line? The bag also appeared in a sleek So Black iteration.

Vernis Monogram
Taking things up a notch, it wasn’t just calfskin that defined the Christopher this season. Pharrell brought back glossy Vernis Monogram — a fabrication rarely seen in recent Louis Vuitton collections. The Christopher Backpack appeared in both vibrant red and classic black Vernis, giving the utilitarian silhouette a high-shine finish.
Expanding the Vernis lineup was the Keepall and Shopping Bag in cool gray tone. The Nile followed suit in the same gray, while also appearing as a pop of glossy red Vernis, nested inside a larger Nile for a playful bag-in-a-bag moment.

LV Silk-Nylon and Malletier Leather Crossover Collection
Classic coated Monogram canvas took a backseat this season, replaced by a sports-luxe reinterpretation dubbed the LV Silk-Nylon and Malletier Leather Crossover collection. This fresh fabrication appeared across multiple styles, including the Speedy Bandoulière, an oversized and mini Nil bag, the Christopher Backpack, the oversized Christopher Messenger, Discovery Backpack, and the new version of the Alma. Each bag’s soft body was given a touch of structure with aged Vachetta leather trim and top handles, allowing them to slouch naturally, whether styled under the arm, or carried by hand.

LV Bag Rain Jackets
Expanding the sports-luxe lineup, gray nylon iterations appeared in a track-suit-inspired material that reveals the LV Monogram when it comes in contact with water. Backstage footage showed the team swapping in water to unveil the effect before the bags hit the runway. Familiar silhouettes including the Shopping Bag and new Alma, were reimagined in perforated suede and encased in purpose-built nylon “rain jackets,” with cut-outs allowing the bags’ handles to pass through — because who would want their suede bag to get wet? On the runway, the Alma was presented half-zipped into its matching case, while the Shopping Bag appeared housed in a dust-bag style cover, secured via drawstring.
The same water-reactive Monogram was also presented in a tan shade.

LV Briefcase
Rendered in the same perforated suede as the Rain Jacket Bags, this sleek briefcase features “LOUIS VUITTON” lettering appliquéd across the front. The worn-effect body is complemented by matching tonal leather trim and a top handle, with reinforced metal corners.

Bunny Bag
Hopping straight off the runway, the Maxi Bunny Bag echoed the same soft-colored fur jackets seen in the collection. Crafted in plush, tactile fur, the oversized design featured classic Vachetta leather top handles.

Rotary Phone Bag
Straight out of Pharrell’s mid-century-inspired home, the Rotary Telephone Bag felt like an accessory lifted directly from the set. Crafted from Monogram canvas with aged Vachetta leather trim, the design featured a classic rotary dial adorned with the LV logo. The telephone handset doubled as a sculptural top handle, while D-rings on the body allowed for a detachable shoulder strap.

Boombox Trunk
A nod to Pharrell’s enduring love of music, the runway showcased a mini hardsided Boombox trunk. Coated in classic Monogram canvas, the design featured speakers and a cassette deck and top handle rendered in what appears to be silver-tone hardware.

Extending the portable music player motif, a Walkman-inspired design crafted from matte silver appeared next, styled attached to the Christopher Backpack.

Statement Trunks
Larger-scale trunks followed, reinforcing Louis Vuitton’s travel DNA. Wheeled onto the runway, Pharrell’s signature oversized trunks returned, this season reworked with a stained-glass window effect. Depicting cityscapes and skylines, the panels glowed under the runway lighting, adding depth and movement as the trunks rolled through the space.

The theme of stacking and layering extended here as well, with a tower of five trunks arranged from largest to smallest. Displayed in a tonal gradient — from deep tan at the base to light Vachetta at the top.
