Louis Vuitton SS27 Menswear: Rain Gear and Puffers Take Over

-

Louis Vuitton's Spring/Summer 2027 men's pre-collection puts an orange vest, a yellow rain jacket and a thick blue puffer side by side. Designed by men's creative director Pharrell Williams under the theme 'Whatever the Weather,' it blends rainwear, workwear, sportswear and tailoring.

A Wardrobe Built for Travel

Heavy padding and rain jackets appear in a warm-season collection because the clothes are designed around movement. Temperatures and rainfall differ by region, and days and nights can feel very different, so the outerwear range is wider than a typical light summer lineup. The idea ties back to the house's roots in 19th-century travel trunks.

Workwear from the 1980s inspired the Monogram Reporter, which combines coated canvas, brown suede and leather. It appears on a reversible orange vest, a blue nylon puffer with debossed Monogram leather shoulder panels, and denim workwear. The yellow slicker, inspired by fishermen's raincoats, is made in glossy calfskin, while a padded coat is woven in mini-Monogram jacquard tailoring fabric.

Practical pieces include a packable fleece blouson that folds into its front pocket. Styling is playful too: a yellow hooded jacket over a black hoodie, shorts, long socks and boots, or matching orange jacket and trousers in a roomy workwear cut.

The pieces are not all equally functional. A glossy or coated surface does not guarantee waterproofing, and being reversible or packable says nothing about weather protection. Actual performance depends on fabric, seams and closures.

Why It Matters

The collection shows how menswear is blurring seasonal boundaries, with puffers in spring and rainwear with shorts. It treats outerwear as the heart of a mobile, travel-ready wardrobe while keeping luxury materials and branding front and center.

Incheon Explores Cleaner Tap Water and Stream Restoration

Incheon City Council Chairman Park Jong-hyuk held a policy meeting on October 22 to discuss how to improve tap water quality for residents. The talks covered aging water pipes in homes and schools, as well as eco-friendly ways to clean up the Gulpocheon stream in the city's Bupyeong District. Pipes, Schools and a Pilot Project The meeting took place at the council chairman's office and included Shim Hak-seop, CEO of Jinhaeng Waterway, and Jang Dae-gyeom, chairman of Gil Co., along with council officials. Water quality depends not only on treatment plants but also on distribution networks, indoor pipes and storage tanks, so old buildings, schools and public facilities can see differences in color and turbidity at the tap. Incheon already runs a roughly 10 billion won program this year to help replace aging indoor water pipes, such as corrosion-prone galvanized steel. Eligible homes can receive up to 80 percent of construction costs, capped at 1.5 million won per household, and s...

A black cloth blankets the floor, and from an old wooden chair, leafless branches reach upward. Behind it hangs a circular painting where black meets silver, an installation by Korean artist Limhana (LIMHANA) titled 'Replenish'. It was shown from October 21 to 27 at Gallery 2 of the Sejong Center for the Performing Arts in Seoul, as part of the selected young artists exhibition of the 21st Gwanghwamun International Art Festival 2026. Memory, Matter and Space Sixty-one artists, Limhana among them, were chosen for this year's Asian contemporary young artists showcase. Limhana linked 'Replenish' with the forms of 'Tree of Thoughts' and 'Wanting Not to Be Seen, Unable Not to Be Seen' to stage how an inner self worn down by memory, emotion and relationships slowly regains its balance. In the circular painting, deep black sits alongside layered silver matière. Black stands for tolerance and embrace, while the silver rises in swirling, overlapping textures ...
