FF7's Iconic "One-Winged Angel" Scores LV Runway Show

The iconic Final Fantasy VII soundtrack, "One-Winged Angel," made a surprise appearance at the Louis Vuitton Men's Fall-Winter 2025 fashion show. This unexpected collaboration saw the powerful track performed live by an orchestra as models showcased the latest collection.

The show's creative director, Pharrell Williams, curated the 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," composed by Nobuo Uematsu, stands out amongst the more contemporary selections. While the reasoning behind this choice remains unclear, it's speculated that Williams is a fan of the music or perhaps a Final Fantasy enthusiast. The full show is available on the official Louis Vuitton YouTube channel.

Square Enix, the creators of Final Fantasy VII, expressed their pleasure at the inclusion of "One-Winged Angel" via their official Final Fantasy VII X (Twitter) account. They shared a tweet highlighting the unexpected collaboration and linking to the fashion show video.
