Accompanied by his parents, basketball player Victor Vembanyama, 2.24 meters tall, dominates the Louis Vuitton fashion show.

The most stylish basketball player of his generation caused a sensation this Tuesday, June 18, during the first day of Paris Fashion Week at the Louis Vuitton fashion show. From his height of 2.24 meters, Victor Vembanyama, the new muse of the luxury brand, overshadowed all the other stars present at the event. It must be said that the NBA prodigy was also accompanied by his parents, Elodie De Fotro and Felix Vembanyama. In the gardens of the UNESCO house, the three posed for photographers before unveiling the new collection from Louis Vuitton Men’s creative director Pharrell Williams for a year.

The very elegant sportsman was dressed in a gray jacket and trousers, all with a large blue bag trimmed in turquoise. Her parents decided to contrast their looks, with her mother wearing a black suit and her father wearing a white outfit. They were surrounded by other French celebrities who went there with their families, including Omar Sy, who was seen holding his wife Helene and their two children Tidiane (18) and Sabah (20).

Heritage sport

American Championship phenom Victor Vembanyama owes most of his success to his family. His father is a long jumper and his mother is a former professional basketball player turned coach. Sports as heritage, he reminded at the microphone TF1:, on June 16 in the “Sept à Huit” show. “On holiday it was athletics sessions, running and lots of advice. Things that you don’t learn at all in a regular circuit and that are important anyway,” he recalled to reporter Audrey Crespo-Mara. It’s enough to propel him to the pinnacle of American basketball and the top title of Louis Vuitton.
