DStv Prem's LV boys
The news of Pharrell Williams joining Louis Vuitton as the new Men's creative director, sent the fashion world into quite a buzz.
Skateboard P will be the first to hold this position at Louis V since the passing of streetwear pioneer Virgil Abloh and it could see a host of footballers following the brand closely again.
Ballers like Ndah, Zungu and Mpisane have shown their appreciation for Abloh's designs during his time at LV, with the LV Trainer Sneakers proving to be a big hit among many football fashionistas.

Mpisane and Ndah are what you call a hypebeasts, people who embellishes themselves in luxury or other well-known brands.
Both ballers took a liking to the LV Trainer Sneakers, and whatever Pharrell cooks up with the footwear at the French fashion house, could be watched with keen interest by the aforementioned players.
Zungu is another hypebeast who's taken a liking to LV's bags and other garments like jackets.
As someone who seems like they follow fashion trends closely, it would be a surprise not to see him rock one of Pharrell's future designs.
As a musician and fashion designer, Pharrell's work has been revered since the early 2000s and since 2016, Williams' brand Humanrace has worked with adidas on several sportswear-inspired collections.
In 2020, Williams designed a range of archive-inspired jerseys for Manchester United, Arsenal, Bayern Munich, Juventus and Real Madrid through Humanrace and adidas.
And this raises the question, could Skateboard P combine the world's of fashion and football with Louis Vuitton? Hector Bellerin walked for the brand at London Fashion Week during Abloh's stint, only time will tell if Pharrell will take the brand's links to football to another level.
