In 2004, Louis Vuitton designer Marc Jacobs tapped on Pharrell and his Billionaire Boys Club co-founder Nigo to create an eyewear collection for the luxury brand. The result was the Millionaire sunglasses, which featured a rounded frame embellished with gold hardware details. The shades originally came in striking red, and were later reissued in 2007 in purple, teal and classic black. The Millionaires were sported by Pharrell when he attended Jacobs’s Louis Vuitton fashion shows, and were also seen on Kanye West and Virgil Abloh. The latter would pay homage to the sunglasses for his debut collection at Louis Vuitton for spring/summer 2019, where he launched the square-framed 1.1 Millionaires sunglasses.

While you’re waiting for the launch of Pharrell’s Tiffany and Co collection, you might want to look into his fine jewellery collaboration with Louis Vuitton. In 2008, the music producer teamed up with the maison’s then-jewellery consultant, Camille Miceli, to create the Blason collection, featuring extravagant rings, earrings and more accessories in diamonds and gold. For collectors, the Blason ring is a must-have. As seen in the campaign film above, the design has a reversible pendant: one side is embellished in diamonds, while the other showcases Louis Vuitton’s coat of arms.

Long before Moncler’s buzzy collaborations with Rick Owens, Simone Rocha and Valentino’s Pierpaolo Piccioli, Pharrell was recruited to put his spin on the Italian brand’s staple puffer jacket for a capsule collection for fall/winter 2010. Pharrell introduced a line of outerwear pieces, the highlight of which was a “pacifist” bulletproof vest. It was constructed with textiles from Bionic Yarn, a Pharrell-owned company that spins fabrics from recycled plastic bottles. (Luxury fashion brands like Prada would use similar sustainable textiles years later.) The vest’s lining features a forest-inspired print by Japanese artist Keita Sugiura. In 2013, the vest was reissued in brighter colours like yellow, blue and red. Pharrell recently demonstrated the timelessness of his Moncler vest, wearing the black version to the brand’s 70th-anniversary show in 2022.

Pharrell would again team up with Moncler in 2013, this time to design the brand’s Lunettes sunglasses collection. The Get Lucky singer introduced unique eyewear styles that captured the “halfway between futurism and fifties style”, with each frame being crafted from a single piece of titanium. This particular pair, modelled by Pharrell himself for Moncler’s eyewear campaign, is a standout from the collaboration, thanks to its oversized yet lightweight design.

In 2014, Pharrell and French luxury goods house Moynat launched a whimsical capsule collection inspired by trains, of all things. There were colourful leather pouches featuring the locomotive, as well as a clutch sculpted from wood. The collaboration also included this Train Bag, a minaudière made from hand using resin. The playful piece even came with an attachable rear train bag.
