Pharrell Williams has unveiled a pedigree collection that seamlessly blends high fashion and man’s love for his furry companions in the Louis Vuitton Cruise 2025 (Resort 2025) collection. This season, the French fashion house has gone to the dogs, offering a barking selection of LV-branded canine accessories alongside a sophisticated menswear line that pays homage to our four-legged friends.
The “DOG LVERS” collection takes us on a luxurious stroll around the block, imagining a walkable wardrobe perfect for accompanying your dog on everyday adventures. From city streets to dog parks, Williams evaluates pet-friendly connections and creates a collection that follows stylish New Yorkers on their daily walks.
The elevated collection features understated sophistication in illustrative sweaters, LV-branded leather jackets and tailored shorts. Louis Vuitton’s iconic check pattern adorns collarless outerwear in tweed, while spotted fleeces and Canadian tuxedos showcase subtle graphics with opulent backbones. Wool trench coats and monogrammed uniforms carry Williams‘ premium touch, complemented by charming hoodies, laid-back tracksuits and straight-leg trousers linked by LV signatures.

Pouting French bulldogs and paw prints cling to miniature and oversized leather goods, leading into the second part of the collection, which pays tribute to victorious dog shows. Preppy menswear looks are complemented by groomed pets waiting for their first prize, with bone-shaped briefcases, ribboned accessories and gold-trimmed doghouses.
The fun is in spotting the various dog-related details inserted into the menswear, such as an intarsia shearling jacket and sneaker with Dalmatian dots, dog crest shirts, loafers with bone charm collar detailing, a double dog portrait silk souvenir jacket, dog portrait bandanas and many best-in-show rosettes. An ingenious “meta houndstooth” replaces the traditional chickenfoot element with a dog’s head, adding a playful twist to the classic pattern.
While the collection is primarily focused on our canine companions, Williams makes an inclusive gesture to feline friends with jumbo slippers and loafers in cat patterns. The backdrop to this puppy-centric product line is a menswear collection that extends Williams’ take on contemporary dandyism, referencing British menswear traditions such as sleeveless cricket jerseys, LV-tweaked argyle tailoring and Fair Isle knitwear.
With pet owners often putting their pets first, even in times of financial stress, Louis Vuitton’s Cruise 2025 collection is sure to get tongues – and tails – wagging. With Pharrell Williams at the helm, the French fashion house continues to push boundaries, bringing hype, glamour and streetwear sophistication to the menswear department while celebrating the unbreakable bond between man and his best friend.
