Pharrell Williams’s 2004 Millionaire Louis Vuitton Sunglasses Spike in Search Interest

Today, Louis Vuitton announced Pharrell Williams as the brand’s new men’s creative director. Best known for his work in music, Williams has also worked in fashion, beauty and other industries — and his relationship with Louis Vuitton is long-standing. In 2004, Williams collaborated with Louis Vuitton and Nigo for a sunglass collection under the name Millionaire. Upon the announcement of Williams’ appointment as artistic director, Pietro Beccari, the brand’s chairman and CEO, issued a statement saying, “I am glad to welcome Pharrell back home, after our collaborations in 2004 and 2008 for Louis Vuitton, as our new Men’s Artistic Director. His creative vision beyond fashion will undoubtedly lead Louis Vuitton towards a new and very exciting chapter.” Williams’ collaboration with Nigo and Louis Vuitton was done under then-creative director Marc Jacobs. In 2008, Williams collaborated with the brand again on jewelry, working with Louis Vuitton’s then-jewelry consultant Camille Miceli for the Blason collection, which included diamond rings and a diamond bracelet.

While Williams’ first collaboration with Louis Vuitton was 19 years ago, the demand for his Millionaire sunglass collaboration continues.

These dreamy years have also been busy ones for the star, who rose to fame for his role as Marc St. James on the sitcom “Ugly Betty.” Now, Urie stars in the hit Apple TV dramedy “Shrinking” alongside Harrison Ford and Jason Segel — season two premieres Oct. 16. He has also taken the stage by storm over the past couple of years, starring in Broadway’s revival of “Spamalot” and now the revival of “Once Upon a Mattress,” which also had a stint at New York City Center in the winter. While both shows feature Urie in showstopping musical numbers, he never considered himself to be “very musical.”  Michael Urie in “Once Upon a Mattress.” “Doing a musical at all, it’s still a pinch me thing,” he says. “I fell in love with theater because of musicals…[but singing] didn’t come naturally to me.” ...
