Things are heating up at Louis Vuitton, all thanks to its new ambassador.
On June 10, Jeremy Allen White was named the new face of the brand for what men’s creative director Pharrell Williams called his “quiet confidence and authenticity.”
“It’s effortless. At Louis Vuitton, it’s about real people who move culture forward — and Jeremy lives that. We’re proud to welcome him into the family,” the singer, who was appointed by Louis Vuitton on Feb. 14, 2023, said in a press release.

The Shameless alum and current star in The Bear, 34, brings a seductive energy to his debut campaign. He models a satiny loungewear-inspired look with a low-cut shirt displaying his chest hair, while also rocking his signature curls.
“This exciting collaboration unites his compelling talent with the House’s enduring legacy of craftsmanship and visionary aesthetic,” the brand shared in a press statement of partnering with White.

Before his new gig, White wore Louis Vuitton to the 2025 Met Gala. Tied to this year’s “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style” theme and “Tailored for You” dress code, the Golden Globe winner wore a three-piece pinstripe suit decorated with a Jaeger-LeCoultre watch and Skydiamond jewelry.
Even before that, he attended the February SAG Awards in a more traditional Louis Vuitton suit silhouette styled with a gold brooch.
While this marks White’s foray into high fashion, he’s previously modeled for Calvin Klein. In his first ad for the brand, he famously stripped down to his skivvies while posing on a New York City rooftop. He returned for a second fall campaign, which had even more ab action in store.
