“I guess there’s a reason why people call me Peggy Shoe!”

Peggy Gou's sparking Louis Vuitton monogram

French fashion house Louis Vuitton is again flirting with youth culture by enlisting South Korean DJ, producer, and founder of KIRIN, Peggy Gou, to model shoes for its autumn/winter 2020 collection.

Titled A Mile in Peggy Gou’s Shoes, the short offers a casual look at Ms. Gou’s routine in Berlin, opening with shots of her modern apartment and then following her as she tours her hometown on a red LV-marked bicycle.

The range of new LV drops features the luxury house's iconic monogram motif on accessories and all of Louis Vuitton’s most covetable AW20 shoes.

Inspired by a wardrobe constantly reinterpreted, Nicolas Ghesquière, Artistic Director of the French brand's women's collections, creates emblematic styles in the jacquard pattern called SINCE 1854, the year when LV was founded.

Matador ankle boots

The update on the classic cowboy boots comes with the help of the Matador silhouette, also in the LV monogram canvas. Inspired by the FW 2020 women's fashion show, the ankle boots in glazed leather represent well the mix of assertive apparel moves with iconic fashion houses.

There is also good news for sneakerheads – attractive, casual, or urban: the gender lines of this collection are increasingly fluid.
