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

Louis Vuitton's Fall-Winter 2025 Men's Fashion Show Featured Final Fantasy VII's Iconic "One-Winged Angel"

The Louis Vuitton Men's Fall-Winter 2025 fashion show opened with an unexpected and electrifying choice: Nobuo Uematsu's "One-Winged Angel," the iconic theme for Final Fantasy VII's antagonist, Sephiroth. A live orchestra performed the powerful piece as models showcased the new collection.

A Live Orchestral Performance

Creative director Pharrell Williams curated the show's soundtrack, which featured a mix of pop artists like The Weeknd, Playboy Carti, Don Toliver, SEVENTEEN, and BTS' j-hope. The inclusion of "One-Winged Angel," a distinctly non-pop choice, has sparked curiosity. While no official reason has been given, it's speculated that Williams' personal appreciation for the music, or even a hidden Final Fantasy fandom, might be the explanation. Williams composed or co-wrote the other tracks featured in the show.

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

Square Enix's Delightful Surprise

Square Enix expressed their surprise and delight at the inclusion of "One-Winged Angel" via their official Final Fantasy VII X (Twitter) account. They shared their excitement and linked to the fashion show video.

Final Fantasy VII: A Timeless Classic

Final Fantasy VII, originally released in 1997, remains a beloved title in the franchise. The story of Cloud Strife and his companions' fight against Shinra and Sephiroth captured the hearts of gamers worldwide. The subsequent Final Fantasy VII Remake Project, a multi-part reimagining, has further cemented its legacy.

The first installment of the Remake Project is available on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, and PC. Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, the second part, is currently available on PlayStation 5, with a PC release on Steam slated for January 23rd. The third and final game is currently in development.
