Léa Seydoux’s Louis Vuitton Looks Take Two Different Directions in New York

The start of Léa Seydoux’s press tour for Gentle Monster was dominated by three black Louis Vuitton looks at TIFF, followed by two black-and-white ensembles during the London Film Festival. But New York has given us something different, with two more Louis Vuitton outings that depart from the dress codes we’ve seen so far.

This is easily my favourite of the two looks. The chocolate-brown Louis Vuitton jacket is the star here, from its sculpted waist and high collar to the asymmetric hem and distinctive silver fastenings. I especially love how the tailoring creates such a flattering silhouette, while the rich autumnal hue works beautifully with the blue jeans. The denim gives the jacket a more relaxed feel without compromising its elegance, and the black pointed-toe pumps are the perfect finishing touch. It’s a combination I would happily wear myself.

I’m less enthusiastic about this grey pinstripe tailored Louis Vuitton look. The colour doesn’t do much for me, and I feel the overall styling ages Léa slightly.

I would have preferred this without the waistcoat, allowing the crisp white shirt and tailored trousers to stand on their own. As it is, the look feels a little too formal for my taste, especially after seeing how well she wore the brown jacket and jeans earlier in the day.
