In a statement, Pietro Beccari, Louis Vuitton?s chairman and CEO, said that he was ?glad to welcome Pharrell back home.? Williams previously worked with Louis Vuitton in 2008, collaborating on lines of sunglasses and jewelry.
Beccari continued, ?His creative vision beyond fashion will undoubtedly lead Louis Vuitton towards a new and very exciting chapter.?
