Louis Vuitton names Jeremy Allen White new ambassador
Allen White's relationship with the Parisian fashion house began at the SAG Awards in February, and then the 'Superfine: Tailoring Black Style' edition of the Met Gala earlier in May, where both times the actor was dressed in Louis Vuitton.
'Jeremy's got a quiet confidence and authenticity that you can't fake. It's effortless. At Louis Vuitton, it's about real people who move culture forward—and Jeremy lives that. We're proud to welcome him into the family," said Louis Vuitton men's creative director, Pharrell Williams.
A notion reiterated by the LVMH -owned brand, whose mega male celebrity roster already includes J- Hope, BamBam, Jackson Wang, Callum Turner, Timothée Adolphe, Léon Marchand, Antoine Dupont, Felix, and Enzo Lefort.
"With a refined personal flair and magnetic on-screen presence, he captures the essence of modern artistry: effortlessly blending style and elegance in harmony with Louis Vuitton's signature," said LVMH, in a press release.
Louis Vuitton's partnership with Allen White follows the actor's viral underwear campaign with U.S. brand Calvin Klein for Spring 2024, which depicted the chiselled star walking around New York City in a pair of white boxer briefs, soundtracked by Lesley Gore 's hit, "You Don't Own Me."
While Allen White's raunchy partnership with Louis Vuitton isn't likely to cause a social media firestorm, parent company LVMH is hoping that the actor's new connection with its biggest brand will inject some much needed buzz.
In its most recent trading update in April, LVMH reported a 3% drop in first-quarter sales, compared to 1% growth in the fourth quarter, as the luxury industry bellwether fights a downturn in demand for its high-end goods.

Sarah Burton celebrates the female gaze in Givenchy debut campaign
Burton has celebrated the female gaze in her debut campaign for Givenchy which stars Kaia Gerber. The American supermodel is the protagonist in a shoot helmed by friend, photographer Halina Reijn, where Gerber plays the role of Reijn's muse in a studio shoot. In effect, the campaign plays on Reijn's multi-disciplinary career as an actress, writer and filmmaker, as well as a photographer. The shoot features looks from Burton's debut Fall 2025 collection for Givenchy, one of nearly a dozen fashion houses owned by the giant French luxury conglomerate LVMH. Burton staged her opening collection for Givenchy in March to great acclaim inside the brand's historic headquarters on avenue George V, in Paris' tony 16th arrondissement. Like the show space, which was stripped down to an all-white setting, the muse and photographer are shot in a minimalist studio set. It is a far cry from Burton's campaigns at her previous job with Alexander McQueen, where she had several campaigns shot on the muddy banks of the Thames at low tide. 'Kaia Gerber and Halina Reijn captured something I love about how creative women collaborate. The idea behind my first campaign for Givenchy was to focus on the friendship between a film director and an actress. I wanted it to celebrate the female gaze,' said Burton in a release. Highlights for Givenchy include the designer's new chic white peplum dress worn with golden heels and dazzling earrings, along with a sexy black lace dress and a sleek sinful red sheath worn with slip-on heels or logo-accented loafers. It is tough romantic chic in a fashionable Entente Cordiale between a British couturier and a premier French fashion marque.
