LV Fashion Show Highlights FF7's Iconic "One-Winged Angel"

The iconic Final Fantasy VII soundtrack, "One-Winged Angel," made a surprising appearance at the Louis Vuitton Men's Fall-Winter 2025 fashion show. This unexpected collaboration has captivated fans worldwide.

A Live Orchestral Performance

The show opened with a powerful rendition of "One-Winged Angel," performed by a live orchestra as models showcased the latest Louis Vuitton menswear collection. The dramatic piece provided a striking contrast to the typically pop-focused soundtracks of similar events.

Creative director Pharrell Williams curated the show's music. While he composed or co-wrote most of the other tracks—featuring artists like The Weeknd, Playboy Carti, Don Toliver, SEVENTEEN, and BTS' j-hope—the inclusion of "One-Winged Angel," composed by Nobuo Uematsu, remains intriguing. Williams' personal appreciation for the music, or perhaps a hidden love for Final Fantasy, likely explains its inclusion.

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

Square Enix's Delightful Surprise

Square Enix expressed their surprise and delight at the unexpected inclusion on the official Final Fantasy VII X (Twitter) account, stating their happiness at the choice made by Pharrell Williams and his team. They shared a link to the show's video on their post.

Final Fantasy VII: A Gaming Classic

Final Fantasy VII, the story of Cloud Strife and his companions' fight against Shinra and Sephiroth, remains a beloved title in the franchise. Its original 1997 release cemented its place in gaming history.

The subsequent Final Fantasy VII Remake project, a modern reimagining of the classic, has captivated a new generation of gamers. The project, planned as a trilogy, features updated graphics, expanded storylines, and engaging combat.

Final Fantasy VII Remake is available on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, and PC. Final Fantasy VII Rebirth is available on PlayStation 5, with a PC release on Steam slated for January 23rd.
