Japanese actress Moeka Hoshi and Nicolas Ghesquière's Louis Vuitton are a winning combination if we've ever seen one. Back in February, the breakout star of FX's hit drama Shōgun wore a custom look from the brand—a red crêpe jersey trompe l'œil gown with a draped cape—to the Critics Choice Awards, where she picked up the award for Best Supporting Actress in a Drama Series. Later that month, at the Screen Actors Guild Awards, she shined in another custom LV look, a stunning silk-satin embroidered bustier gown, and took home the award for Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Drama Series. In March, she marked her first Paris Fashion Week, attending the brand's fall 2025 show wearing a sportier combination of a zip-up track jacket and tweed-style trousers. A Hoshi x LV moment is not to be missed!
The actress returned to the City of Light earlier this week for Louis Vuitton's spring 2026 show, in which Ghesquière explored the comfort of home and the luxury of dressing for oneself. Returning to the Louvre, this time at the intimate summer apartments of Anne d'Autriche, Queen of France from 1615 to 1643, Ghesquière presented an amalgamation of indoor and outdoor dressing, taking inspiration from interiors. From the gauzy camisole robe with black piping that opened the show to cozy yet artfully embellished knitwear and beaded fringe pant-and-top sets, the collection was a master class in craftsmanship.
Before Hoshi took her front-row seat alongside the likes of Emma Stone, Zendaya, and Lisa, she invitedBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing to follow along as she got ready for the big show.
Talk to me about your look from the Louis Vuitton show. Who or what were you channeling?
I chose a light and airy look with a bright tone to match a daytime show with a sense of movement. I imagined the dreamy atmosphere of the Louvre Museum with the sunlight streaming in.
How would you describe the look in three words?
Dreamy, playful, and inner strength.
In what ways does this look speak to you and your personal style?
The dress itself is very sweet, but with black leather accents on the shoulders, bag, and boots, it mixes contrasting elements. I feel this represents both the delicate and the strong sides of my personality.
Take me behind the direction you wanted to take for your hair and makeup.
The dress had beautiful pale-blue jewels, so I matched them with light-blue eye shadow. Since the look already had edgy leather details, I wanted to balance it with an airy, soft hairstyle to keep the overall feel from becoming too strong.
Do you have any preshow rituals or traditions?
I spend extra time on moisturizing and stretching before shows.
What was playing in the background while you got ready? Is there a song or artist that is a must on your getting-ready playlist these days?
Since arriving in Paris, I've been listening to ballet music—Romeo and Juliet and Sleeping Beauty. Chappell Roan is a favorite!
What were you anticipating from Nicolas Ghesquière's next collection for LV?
I was excited to see what theme would unfold. Both the direction and the designs always go beyond my imagination, so I couldn't wait.
Louis Vuitton always has a star-studded front row. Who were you most excited to see, and why?
I was especially looking forward to seeing Chase Infiniti. We became friends at the March show in Paris, so I was very happy to meet again.
What Louis Vuitton piece(s) do you currently have your eye on?
At the special exhibition at headquarters, I was once again struck by how beautiful the trunks are.
Are there any favorite LV pieces currently in your closet?
In my own collection, I treasure a hairpin from the Takashi Murakami collaboration and a scarf from the Grace Coddington collaboration.
When you're in Paris, what are some of your must-sees and -dos while in the city?
Visiting museums, walking along the Seine, and enjoying croissants are my musts while in Paris!
