KidSuper’s Colm Dillane is part of a collective of talents for Louis Vuitton’s men’s show in Paris on Jan. 19. It also includes French filmmakers Michel and Olivier Gondry.
This time, “there are no specific influences from Virgil,” Burke said. “This is from scratch, but his fundamental ethos, his vision, was based on values that we perpetuate: inclusivity, authenticity and transparency.”
The initial impetus for the upcoming show, Burke said, came from him, the communication department and the design studio, who brainstormed the guest talents, invited them to meet and then “let them take it to the next level.”All parties expected the Gondry brothers and Dillane to click based on their mutual love of stop-motion animation, “sunshine-y spirit” and a quirky, sometimes child-like aesthetic that is “very happy, and very up, but not innocent,” as Burke put it.
Burke stressed that he didn’t want to do a collaboration with the KidSuper founder and described his involvement as being “embedded” in the studio. “The Karl Lagerfeld prize already felt like I was making it. But this whole KidSuper story has been surreal,” he told WWD. “What I love about it is I did not skip any steps, I did not have any inside connections and here we are. It is a testament to hard work, good ideas and a testament to Louis Vuitton’s willingness to take a chance on someone. I tried to make the most of the opportunity and I hope it shines through in the collection.
To be sure, Vuitton enlisted some additional heavy-hitters to conceive the set for the fall 2023 show, with the Gondry brothers teaming with Kutsovskaya for the scenography.
