Tyler, The Creator says it’s “time to slow down on communicating.”
In a note of gratitude to fans on Wednesday (Dec. 3), the 2026 Grammys nominee and Marty Supreme actor announced the final collection from his le FLEUR* label.
Crafting these clothes over the past seven years, he said, marked a “second passion” of his. Still, the time has come to close this particular chapter, though Tyler noted that certain aspects of the brand—including fragrances, accessories, and collaborations—will proceed. Full collections of clothing, however, will not.
“I started this back in 2019 as a side project,” Tyler said. “The goal was to mirror things that matched my personal style. It grew into a very special world of specific colors, shapes, patterns, etc. From tennis courts at Lacoste, to blue houses on top of mountains, to 30-foot multicolored trunks at Louis Vuitton, this has taken me to places I’ve dreamed of.”
Tyler, recently ranked by Complex as the No. 5 best-dressed rapper of the 21st century, went on to shout out Louise Trotter, now of Bottega Veneta, as the person who gave him his “first real chance” during the designer’s time at Lacoste.
Pharrell Williams and the late Virgil Abloh also got specific mentions, with Tyler saying he is “forever grateful” for those who have “understood the language” along this journey.
“I never wanted to be in the lookbooks or campaigns, but for this last one, it felt right (I was the fit model after all),” Tyler said. “I loved these clothes over the years so so so so so much. Every Pantone picked, every commercial shot, every sample that came in, it fed my spirit in ways nothing else could. It was a language I wanted to create, but now it’s time to slow down on communicating.”
Per Tyler, select pieces from the final collection will launch this Saturday (Dec. 6). He also directed fans to a catalog documenting seven years of le FLEUR*.
In Marty Supreme, out Christmas Day, Tyler has significant screen time alongside star Timothée Chalamet. The artist plays a pivotal role in Josh Safdie’s larger story about what we gain—and by extension, what we may lose—in pursuit of a greatness few can understand. It’s one of the year’s best films, and fittingly caps off another impressive year for Tyler.
In November, Tyler achieved the rare feat of having two different albums—2024’s CHROMAKOPIA and this year’s DON’T TAP THE GLASS—represented among the latest class of Grammy nominees.
CHROMAKOPIA is up for Album of the Year alongside releases from Kendrick Lamar and Clipse, among others, while its swiftly delivered follow-up is competing for Best Alternative Music Album alongside projects from Hayley Williams and The Cure.
