The iconic "One-Winged Angel" soundtrack from Final Fantasy 7 made a surprising yet thrilling appearance at Louis Vuitton's Men’s Fall-Winter Fashion Show. Dive into the details of this unique collaboration between gaming and high fashion!
One-Winged Angel Featured In Louis Vuitton Fashion Showcase
Played By A Live Orchestra
The renowned video game soundtrack, "One-Winged Angel," known as the theme for Final Fantasy 7's antagonist Sephiroth, opened the Louis Vuitton Men’s Fall-Winter Fashion Show with grandeur. As male models showcased the latest in luxury fashion, a live orchestra brought the epic tune to life, setting a dramatic tone for the event.
Pharrell Williams, the creative director and a musician himself, curated the show's soundtrack. While the selection of "One-Winged Angel" might seem unexpected amidst a lineup featuring more contemporary pop artists like The Weeknd, Playboy Carti, Don Toliver, and even K-POP stars SEVENTEEN and BTS’ j-hope, it adds a unique flavor to the event. Pharrell contributed to composing the other tracks, but "One-Winged Angel," originally crafted by Nobuo Uematsu, stands out as a distinct choice. It's possible that Pharrell's decision was influenced by a personal appreciation for the music or perhaps a hidden affinity for the Final Fantasy series.
Fashion enthusiasts and gamers alike can witness this fusion of style and gaming culture by watching the livestream video on Louis Vuitton's official YouTube channel.
Square Enix Is More Than Happy To Hear The News
Square Enix expressed their delight on the official Final Fantasy 7 X (Twitter) account regarding the unexpected feature. "We're more than happy to hear music director Pharrell Williams and team have included One-Winged Angel in the Louis Vuitton Men Fall-Winter 2025 Fashion Show!" they exclaimed, sharing a link to the video.
