The iconic Final Fantasy VII soundtrack, "One-Winged Angel," made a surprising appearance at the Louis Vuitton Men's Fall-Winter 2025 fashion show. Let's delve into this unexpected collaboration.

A Live Orchestral Performance

The show opened with a live orchestra performing "One-Winged Angel," Sephiroth's dramatic theme. Models showcased the new collection to the powerful music.

Creative director Pharrell Williams curated the soundtrack, which featured a mix of pop artists like The Weeknd, Playboy Carti, Don Toliver, SEVENTEEN, and BTS's j-hope. The inclusion of "One-Winged Angel," composed by Nobuo Uematsu, stands out amidst the predominantly pop selections. While the reason for its inclusion remains unstated, it's likely a testament to Williams' personal appreciation for the piece.

The full show is available on the official Louis Vuitton YouTube channel.
