THE SOUNDTRACK­S

The full listing of tunes that heightened the viewing experience at some of this season’s top shows.

CHANEL

Long-time collaborat­or/music designer Michel Gaubert created a playlist that opened with the sound of gulls (the set was a manufactur­ed beach) that evolved into catchy synth-pop earworms that complement­ed the breezy, feel-good collection. JOHNNY JEWEL Reach for the Beach (Synthgulls & Ocean) GLASS CANDY Naked City DESIRE Lately (Instrument­al demo) NIAGARA L’Amour a La Plage DESIRE Tears From Heaven

CHLOE

Natacha Ramsay-Levi contrasted her hippie-inspired third collection for the brand with fast-tempo tracks such as iconic ’90s trance anthem The Age of Love, reflecting her modern, edgier vision of the Chloe bohemian. PHILIP GLASS Caught THE AGE OF LOVE Age of love PHILIP GLASS Train to Sao Paulo BINARY 1998 SISTER NANCY Bam Bam

LOUIS VUITTON

Nicolas Ghesquiere amplified his obsession with dressing for the future with pretty, floral adaptation­s of spacesuits, modified streetwear with what seems like prints of alien landscapes, and an aptly named track by regular collaborat­or Woodkid, featuring the honeyed vocals of Moses Sumney.

CELINE

There was just one track: a rousing, custom-made 20-minute tune by French psych-punk band La Femme that underscore­d creative director Hedi Slimane’s edgy rock/synth-pop leanings. LA FEMME Runway

LOEWE

The brand’s runway show has become known for being an art experience under JW Anderson. To accompany his idiosyncra­tic brand of laidback luxury this S/S ’19: an energetic, minimalist piano number by the avantgarde Belgian composer Wim Mertens. WIM MERTENS Mains

GUCCI

With the collection inspired by theatre eccentrics, the playlist was naturally dramatic, including soaring tracks by opera legend Maria Callas.
