The grandeur of the walls of the Papal Palace in Avignon, like a temple of time, was the backdrop for one of the most enigmatic and exciting shows of the season. The Louis Vuitton 2026 cruise collection, directed by Nicolas Ghesqui&egrave;re, is a journey through the ages, where past and future merge into a fashion myth.

Each image on the catwalk looks like it has descended from an illuminated manuscript or emerged from a video game - an armor, a dream, a chiffon ghost. Ghesqui&egrave;re turns Gothic into something brilliantly modern: leather, mesh, chains, sequins - all these are not just materials, but parts of a ritual in which the dress becomes a spell.
The color palette gives off the glitter of relics, or scatters with fluorescent flashes - silver, bronze, muted gray-blue shades are combined with unexpected elements: asymmetry, cut-outs, transparency, as if frozen between reality and fantasy.

The whole show is like a directed prophecy, in which fashion takes on the voice of an ancient epic and sounds in unison with the future. Louis Vuitton turns the catwalk into a mystery and the clothes into the armor of the XXI century. Cruise 2026 is a sunset on a stone fortress, the glow of Gothic arches and an altar of dreams erected from fabric, metal and light.
