The exciting news dropped today, April 19th, coinciding with the unveiling of Louis Vuitton’s new art exhibition, ‘Painting From Nature.’ In the official announcement video, The8 exudes his signature artistic flair as he moves through a gallery space filled with striking abstract yellow canvases, his own fashionable presence a perfect complement to the art surrounding him.
While this official title marks a significant milestone, The8 is no stranger to the world of Louis Vuitton. He previously lent his creative touch to the music production for their recent 2025 Fall/Winter Men’s Fashion Show.
