Quen Blackwell takes us on a cruise to Louis Vuitton
Staged in Avignon, France, Louis Vuitton's 2026 Cruise show was a masterclass in dramatic ready-to-wear, and Quen gave us a front row seat to the action.

Quen Blackwell loves to perform. Whether that’s on the small screen (she’s been cast in Rachel Sennott’s upcoming HBO comedy), through her cooking show with guests such as Kali Uchis, or her wardrobe, Quen knows how to put on a show.
Naturally, then, it felt right for her to sit FROW at the Louis Vuitton Cruise 2026 show, which featured bold silhouettes and intricate detailing. For the occasion, she gave us a sneak peak behind the scenes, taking us through a morning of skin prep and kitten heel try-ons, alongside some snaps of the picturesque 14th-century palace that served as location for the show. Go on, have a scroll.

“En route 💋”
“It’s a kitten heel summer!”
“A cute LV chocolate treat”
“We made it to the show! I’m so excited 🥹”
“The set is literally the coolest thing I’ve ever seen”
“This. Castle. Is. RIDICULOUS!”
“Having my best friend Katie by my side made this even better ✨”
“That’s a wrap!”
