FF7 One-Winged Angel Soundtrack Featured in LV Fashion Show

The iconic Final Fantasy VII soundtrack, "One-Winged Angel," made a surprising appearance at the Louis Vuitton Men's Fall-Winter 2025 Fashion Show. This unexpected collaboration is a testament to the enduring power of video game music.

A Live Orchestral Performance

The show opened with a live orchestral rendition of "One-Winged Angel," Sephiroth's dramatic theme. Male models, showcasing the latest Louis Vuitton menswear, walked the runway to the powerful music.

Creative director Pharrell Williams curated the soundtrack. While the rest of the playlist leaned towards pop artists like The Weeknd, Playboy Carti, Don Toliver, SEVENTEEN, and BTS's j-hope, the inclusion of "One-Winged Angel" (composed by Nobuo Uematsu) was a unique choice. Williams's personal appreciation for the piece, or perhaps a hidden love for Final Fantasy, likely explains this selection. The official livestream is available on the Louis Vuitton YouTube channel.

Square Enix's Delightful Surprise

Square Enix expressed their surprise and delight on the official Final Fantasy VII X (Twitter) account, stating their happiness at the inclusion of "One-Winged Angel" in the fashion show. They shared a link to the livestream video.

Final Fantasy VII: A Timeless Classic

Final Fantasy VII, a beloved title in the franchise, remains incredibly popular. The story of Cloud Strife and his companions' fight against Shinra and Sephiroth has resonated with gamers for decades. The original 1997 release has since been followed by the critically acclaimed Final Fantasy VII Remake project, a multi-part reimagining of the classic.

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