What Do Louis Vuitton, K-pop Stars BTS and Jigsaw Puzzles Have In Common?

Designer Virgil Abloh recently took to Instagram to tease the invitations he sent guests for the Louis Vuitton Spring/Summer 2022 show in Paris. The designer stated he used the idea of 'play' to inspire the invitations for his seventh show with the fashion house. Some received a deck of cards with historical Black figures on them, others a three-cup magic set with ball, and some received...you guessed it - jigsaw puzzles!
 
 
But the use of jigsaw puzzles didn't end with the invitations. They also made an appearance in Abloh's SS22 set:

Abloh stated the overall theme of his set was inspired by the idea of 'transmission': passing something from one person to another; from generation to generation. And what better way to capture this idea than through jigsaw puzzles?! Beginning with mapmaker John Spilsbury in the 1760s, jigsaw puzzles have long been an entertaining pastime shared and passed down from generation to generation.
