Paris Menswear SS 2027: Bags and Shoes from Dior, Dries Van Noten, Issey Miyake and Louis Vuitton

Dior

Jonathan Anderson’s second chapter, moved up to 9:00 a.m. because of the heat. The theme is the after-party in an aristocratic home: Regency and 18th-century influences meet rave culture, with the newspaper print taken from the Galliano archive.

• Bags: cannage tote in woven raffia, saddle-style messenger bags with the initials C and D, crochet chevron shopper on black leather.
• Shoes: loafers in metallic gold and silver python, newsprint-print shoes, suede loafers and ballet flats with deliberately worn finishes.

Dries Van Noten

Julian Klaußner draws on the poem “The Afternoon of a Faun”: underwear on show, near-transparent fabrics, and tones running from dawn to dusk. The most delicate collection of the season.

• Bags: caramel leather clutch with matching gloves.
• Shoes: ballet flats with ankle laces, flip-flops with beads and sequins, multicolor python derbies and boots, a western boot in cracked leather.

Issey Miyake

The collective work of the Miyake Design Studio starts from bamboo shadows, drawing on East Asian decorative arts and kimono dyeing stencils, with pleating, layering and sheer effects.

• Bags: accordion-pleated styles or sharp origami-like folds, unstructured olive leather sacks.
• Shoes: Asics sneaker veiled in fabric, ankle boots with raw-edge inserts, sandals with fringe and cage weaves.

Louis Vuitton

Pharrell Williams stages a beach with a giant wave and reads surf culture through the figure of the dandy, with music always at the center.

• Bags: Speedy and Alma in pastel shades, Speedy bags beaded all over or in yellow python, duffles, a patchwork bag with souvenir patches, the monogram reinterpreted through cartoon prints and charms.
• Shoes: the Combi, a skate shoe in monogram canvas and leathers such as green croc-effect or spotted.

Two Cross-Brand Trends

• Precious surfaces: embroidery, either delicate and calligraphic or baroque, with beads, crystals and coral.
• Treated surfaces: burnishing, clouding and washes that make every piece unique, for a luxury defined by depth and imperfection.
