Pharell was originally approached by Louis Vuitton designer Marc Jacobs and a deal was announced with the company in Oct. 2004. Pharell, along with Nigo, founder of the clothing line, A Bathing Ape, designed a luxury line of sunglasses for the fashion company. They created a sunglass line for Louis Vuitton that included names like “Elvira,” “Havana,” and “Lady Tiger.” Pharell described his new Vuitton jewelry designs as “super regal.” No in-store date was available at press time.
