Virgil Abloh's Last Louis Vuitton Fashion Show 

I hope that, more than anything, episodes like this show you that you’re capable of performing good analysis. Critical analysis isn’t a superpower, it’s a skill like anything else. If you trust yourself, and take your time, you can do what I do 💫💫

Maaaan everything about this video was beautiful. It was way more than I had expected. And I can’t lie, I began to tear up towards the ending. Thank you bliss and the people who contributed to this. And thank you for all the work you put into this channel, it’s truly amazing, I’ve learned so much from it. Not only fashion wise, but also what the fashion you talk about teaches

You could really tell he wasn’t holding anything back, so much inspiration in every show💚💚

I rewatched this today, I had some new thoughts. The figure 8, infinity symbol and many of the looks use the hourglass shape. The hourglass is a timing device, it’s finite, and requires a conscious turn to reset and to restart a new passage of time. This feels like a symbol of the end, but the start of something new. “The hourglass, sometimes with the addition of metaphorical wings, is often depicted as a symbol that human existence is fleeting, and that the "sands of time" will run out for every human life….” - Wikipedia.

As somebody who is kind of new to runways these analyses are so helpful in finding the deeper meaning in the shows, thank you Bliss.

In the wake of Virgil’s sudden demise it is no contest that Virgil is the blueprint for how to approach creativity with love and a sense of WONDER that is almost child like and honing one’s creativity to create a polished and well thought out work. Rest easy soldier you’ve served well. 🕊

really amazing work! so honored my comment on the last looks was included

With the plague doctor mask, I would say that’s almost definitely the case due to the bag with the flowers , as plague doctors always carried flowers due to the belief of bad smells causing disease

Everyone did a great job and had wonderful ideas. Virgil did a fantastic job. I’ve never cared for LV and I skipped almost every show for years but he made the brand more relatable to me.

SMH I’m the model that was crying 💅

Wow, this made me cry. Virgil was one of a kind. He definitely stood out from the rest of the designers. He's so missed.

The sheer amount of historical and cultural references, easter eggs and playful elements amaze me. We truly do stand on the shoulders of giants, thank you Virgil. It is up to us to continue his legacy by embracing our childlike wonder and making art the child or 17 yr old version of us would love. Thank you bliss and the community for contributing to this amazing video. I'd love to see more of these.

I sent this to my sister to watch. You, too are worth celebrating. Thank you for the opportunity to be a part of something much bigger than myself, and allowing me to share my thoughts. Thank you for sharing your platform. You’re a rare one, Bliss. ♥️💫✨

I know Virgil wouldn’t have wanted us to be sad but i definitely cried throughout this whole video. Everyone’s interpretations are so beautifully explained and have given me an even greater love for Virgil & all of his work. So thank you everyone that contributed (i was too shy too) & thank you Bliss for this video🧡🙏🏾

thank you for these videos on Virgil,,I'm new into the fashion world and I've been using your youtube channel as a way to learn new things and get to know the history of this industry. Seeing the mark that virgil made and the different door he opened for people of melanin has did nothing but boost my confidence. I know it wont be tomorrow or next week but I'm stocked about the journey im about to go on to get to the same position virgil was once in. Hopefully one day I can pay tribute to him and show others that it is possible for them.

That last poem was absolutely beautiful

You are doing amazing work Bliss. Thank you for uniting the community and everyone’s thoughts.

on the post that Tyler made to commemorate Virgil's death, he said '' but Virgil was ALWAYS a cheerleader. For everyone.'' I thought this was one of the most beautiful compliments. We should all be less bitter and jealous and others and celebrate each other's success. Thank you Mr Abloh rest in peace.

i cried so much throughout this video. I've been an artist my whole life but I never understood fashion, never got the point. Until Virgil showed the whole world and I that art is what you make it to be and it could be anything. I have since fallen in love with this medium and and very thankful to have run into videos such as this made by thoughtful creators

What an INCREDIBLE TRIBUTE ! 🙏👏🙏👏🙏😪😪😪😪🙏🙏🙏

I’m sobbing for so many reasons

There is a reason you are the king of fashion youtube.

I don't watch LV shows but was interesting to see cool Black fashion mixed in with Luxury. We all know how exclusive fashion brands can be.

Thank you for giving people such an inspirational and fun to watch analysis, It's great to look at Virgils work like this

thank u bliss and those who contributed. this was great

That’s a beautiful tribute. Thank you and your community for sharing this with us, and giving us a piece of Virgil Abloh.

My favorite episode so far! Wow, Bliss, your content keeps getting richer!! Thank you for creating a safe space for me to learn, drool and dream. Continued love

This was amazing!! So glad I watched ! Thank you for doing this video!

thank you for including the community it would be groovy to view more of this format of content from you. Its humbling and endearing. thank you again Bliss, Dglas

Great video bliss. Hope youre well, love you and the community that brings these videos together.

Great work Bliss and everyone involved! Very insightful and interesting as always.

Amazing again bliss. You once again knocked it out of the park. Much respect man!

What a perfect tribute… and bringing in the love from so many ❤️❤️❤️

Yes I’ve be waiting so patiently for this video to come out

These deep dives are amazing. Thank you so much!

I like the chalk bag on the blue suit. Ties in the climbing theme.

This was a really great analysis video. I’m so thankful for everyone’s input. 😌 (And BTW: Bliss your skin looks amazing! 🤩)

Amazing video and love the idea of including viewers' analysis, some of the interpretations were brilliant! Also as someone who didn't have any interest in fashion until recently, the fact that Virgil is one of the people I've always known about says a lot about the career he has built.

One thing I think about the see through bag is in reference to the invisible woman Air Force one’s from 2006. They were a phenomenon and many bootlegs were made using the same see through design sake which became extremely popular in the hood. It was an important time for sneakers and is an interesting piece of history I feel Virgil would pay homage too.

Just wanna say Thankyou for this 😫🥺

I didn’t even realize that by the first look but I felt that way.. WOW

Amazing work

Great work, Bliss!! Thank u

This show unexpectedly blew my mind

Crazy cool from this amazing community. The more I look back at this show and with those insights, the more I miss Virgil 🥺🙏

In look 45 13:22, the model is wearing in their waist what looks like a chalk bag, which is used in gyms, but specially, it is used when climbing. I guess it could be a reference to the bag you talked about earlier, and the climb to heaven idea. Which could also hace to do with the look being all blue, like if it was in heaven

The inclusion into your video is so cool, just makes you feel special when you see something and it gets shared by someone with a bigger (and better imo) voice

Beautiful designs

Great work!

This was so beautiful

this video is a bit old, yes, but i'm just seeing it. I started becoming interested in fashion only a few weeks ago. My knowledge on most things is, of course, vague. So far, ive mostly watched runway shows (Especially Versaces, since they capture my eyes the most), and i still dont know a whole lot about modern fashion history. I heard about Virgil's passing through social media as some celebrities i followed payed their respects to him, so i only know his name. This video was like entering in the middle of chemistry class without understanding anything they were talking about, but the remarks, connections, and references made were just brilliant and mind blowing. I still dont know a whole about fashion as a more "artful" thing rather than "aesthetically pleasing". My analising abilities dont go that far, but this showed me how even the tiniest little details as shoes can represent something important and creativce and genius. This was truly mind blowing. This made me want to look more into Virgil and his works (and thats what i´ll do!!) All and all, since i started my journey only as little as days ago, ive already stumbled upon your channel lots of times and you have truly been super helpful. The fashion world feels as a giant ball of things, references, concepts and a million tiny details to unpack and it looks quite overwhelming, but i cant wait to learn as much as i can!

Honestly, watching these videos on V, has made me feel more and more towards him as a person, a human and a designer. I feel as I never really looked into his work the way you look into his work or anyone of that matter of fact. I think it reminds me of the time we have and how we can do so much with it, V done so much in the time he had and it really showed through his runways, references and his heart for what he was passionate about. Towards the ending, brought my emotion out which I thank you for and V, especially the poetic reading. life is limitless, do the best you can.

thank you so much for making these videos they never fail to put me in a state of awe. everything from virgil's sentiments, skill, to identity as a poc is truly an inspiration for kids like me who want to use their creativity to their fullest potential; making art you love, representing your people and being a good role model. love from india

He had a great impact in the fashion and design, as well as our culture

Wow. Thank you.

great work

I honestly so choked watching this and I'm okay with that...Virgil was an intellectual,artist,creator and genuinely good human....great video about him, his friends and his iconic sources of inspiration.

Thank u ! I've legit been waiting on this. Did u see the Copenhagen fashion week ?

Always loved the way Virgil expressed his art. Idk it was like he made it acceptable to just be you through whatever you wanted to do and it’s something incomprehensible. Miss that dude man🤦‍♂️💔

Great video amazing work everyone

Absolutely ❤ Virgil Abloh ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Wow thank you this is enlightening!

I love runway analysis and this probably my favorite rip v ❤️🕊

beautiful video

This looks great and moltivating

Amazing!

thats amazing!

EXCEPTIONAL 💯

Wow, amazing video.

u really do a great video, really make inspiration to me. the show is end, v's inspiration always exist.

Firstly Yes miss you virgil. Secondly just realized while watching this and can be wrong but the cover looks like instagram's default story background which may be paying homage to the fact that he build his entire brand offwhite though ig and he was soo engaged with the community on instagram. Other than that I really hope tyler would get a chance as the creative director someday because that man is a genius in his depiction of art. For the LV blurred out bag which looks for me it seems like seeing something while closing your eyes where stuff starts to blur out. He was working hard at LV and on this collection even during his final stage.

WOW THE MONOGRAM TOOOOOOOO CRAZY Virgil always talked about childhood being the purest time. I remember myself as a kid seeing those bags but not really understanding the logo or brand or Anything wow you guys are smart!

Great vid thanks 🙏

amazing video

This really amazing art work....

thanks bliss

13:00 AHHHHHH YES PLS

Great video

Amazing video wow

Im so relieved to see passion for art through fashion , I feel like im around people in person and out that settle for mediocre, but not this fashion community, thrive for the heavens! Dont dwell with the commoners at the risk of your aspersions

Just love this brand

6:43 Virgil, Matthew Williams and Heron Preston started Been Trill together also 💯✨

The bag attached to the belt in look 45 as well as in a few other looks reminds me of the chalk bags climbers use (when climbing you use chalk so that your hands don't sweat and you have a good grip to the holds). The bag ist usually worn either clipped directly to the climbing harness or on a small belt around the waist. This would also be a reference to climbing.

Wow this is a very amazing way of putting this show into words, to all the people that came up with there own interpretations , I thank you a lot for giving up the bigger picture and realizing the references Virgil may/may-not have made every one of them made so much sense in this show, Virgil is truly the embodiment of " one of a kind" because what he did was so amazing he opened door for a lot of people and inspired the colored, I wanted to meet Virgil one day bit unfortunately that won't happen anymore nonetheless I will always aspired and love his work good or bad because he truly was a creative genius and I don't really care of what people say about it because everyones work is unique to them and there story, I want to thank him for truly inspiring us to reach our creative goals and dreams because they'll never be another Virgil. I you read this I hope your doing well, I hope you reach your dreams and never give up no matter how hard life hits you. Keep it pushing keep it moving because eventually your dreams will get tired of running from you. 🙏🏽 💫🧠

So beautiful!

Probably reaching, but also Tyler on a bike, following on from the kid riding their bike in the 'Virgil was Here' video

Interesting show!

This was one of the most beautiful runway shows, I’ve ever seen.

So cool 🔥

Yo please do another group analysis.pleaseeeeeeee

All I have to say is thank you

I'm just gonna say it! Your hair was loking great in this video

welp, this one broke me... as some who learned about high fashion due to virgil and someone who is now in fashion school, virgil changed my life (along with so many other people) without ever actually speaking to them. thats something only a great can do and virgil was one, this show is art and it really shows best what virgils LV was. LLV rest up goat🙏🏻

Groeten uit Holland!

Virgil fantastic human

Damn, not me low key sobbing during the description of the white angel looks around the 15 minute mark

Very good video nice

Nice video

Tearing up… but beautifully..

Chicago has kids that play drums on “paint buckets” in various stops throughout Chicagoland nd in front of United Center for Chicago Bulls games.
