COACH Introduces “I Got It From My Mom” Mother's Day Campaign

COACH introduces “I Got It From My Mom,” its campaign for Mother’s Day, starring COACH Family including Jennifer Lopez, Noah Beck and Jessica Kelly, along with their loved ones.

Captured by Joshua Woods, the campaign introduces portraits of the cast with their family members and a video series where they share the unique gifts, talents and traits they got from their moms.

A playful reference to COACH’s legacy and bags handed down from one generation to the next, “I Got It From My Mom” celebrates the role mother figures play as mentors, muses and sources of style inspiration.

“This Mother’s Day, we wanted to recognize all the ways mothers inspire and shape us,” said North America Brand President and Chief Marketing Officer of COACH Sandeep Seth. “We also wanted to celebrate the joy found in the things we pass from one generation to another, and our brand’s role in creating special memories for our customers over the years.” “I Got It From My Mom” highlights the house’s Pillow Tabby and Madison Shoulder Bag.

Montblanc & The Beauty of Writing Craftsmanship at Homo Faber in Venice

Montblanc showcases the artistry and beauty of its writing instrument craftsmanship at Homo Faber , the ground-breaking cultural experience in Venice from April 10th to May 1st 2022. The event brings together international master artisans and rising stars to illustrate the diversity of materials, techniques, origins and skills behind functional everyday objects and outstanding decorative pieces. The immersive experience curated by Montblanc spotlights the art of nib craftsmanship, one of the purest expressions of Montblanc craftsmanship, with a skilled process that transforms gold into the nibs of its celebrated writing instruments.

Inside the Montblanc space at the Fondazione Giorgio Cini on Island San Giorgio Maggiore, guests are invited to learn about the anatomy of a fountain pen and the ingenuity behind the tool’s functions and elements. The immersive experience features a step-by-step guide of the 12 production phases to masterfully craft a nib, with craftspeople on-site making nibs. True to its mission to Inspire Writing, visitors can discover or rediscover the wonder of writing by hand at the Montblanc Writing Station with a bespoke nib presentation and through the testing of different ink colours. Montblanc experts are on hand to make recommendations around specific nib and ink choices to achieve the optimal writing experience.

“We are delighted to return to Homo Faber, bringing with us the artistry and virtuosity of Montblanc artisans who oversee 35 skilled steps to handcraft our gold nibs. It is their enduring passion and expertise that have sustained Montblanc’s status as the great pioneer of writing culture as well as a custodian of the traditions of craftsmanship through the generations. A nod to the opening of Montblanc Haus in Hamburg this Spring, we are thrilled to spotlight the exceptional creativity of Studio Marianne Guély’s with a new work connected to the work she has created for our new brand destination that celebrates the wonder of handwriting,” says Nicolas Baretzki, Montblanc CEO.

As part of its participation in Homo Faber, Montblanc has partnered with Studio Marianne Guély’s on her project 'The Imaginary Alphabet' with the installation "ABCD’M" that echoes the cultural diversity of Venice, a city that over the centuries has made its mark in the world of art and craftsmanship. This contemporary tribute to Aldo Manuzio, the Venetian printer of 1515, is a subtle blend of cultures and savoir-faire transmitted through writing.  The original installation is a reflection of this cultural place through the prism and values shared by Homo Faber, Montblanc and Studio Marianne Guély.

The space is a metaphorical representation of this savoir-faire: the shelves of books represent this knowledge and know-how accumulated, written down, and transmitted over time like a precious treasure. The arch is a symbol of these ancient libraries and the bridges of Venice as links between cultures and knowledge. The mirror reflects endlessly the library and the letters evoking the perpetuation and evolution of knowledge through time. The imaginary alphabet represented by the paper letters that float in space as if escaped from the books, is a graphic and physical representation of thought and creation, formalized by writing. Thanks to the work of Lorenz Boegli, a printer beyond compare, and his unique silkscreen printing skills, we have created a bold and immersive experience. Through its treatment and the application of phosphorescent inks, the alphabet reveals itself to the visitor in two different ways, giving freedom to his imagination to absorb the artwork.

As part of its ongoing commitment to craftsmanship, Montblanc Haus opens its doors to the public at its headquarters in Hamburg, Germany this May. It tells the story of Montblanc from its founding days to the present, of the women and men that craft Montblanc’s writing instruments and of those who have used them to share their imprint on humanity. The immersive brand experience brings to life Montblanc’s belief in the value of writing and the ways in which it helps people express their full potential and ultimately leave their mark on the world.

Chloé SS2022 Advertising Campaign

Chloé SS2022 advertising campaign transports you to the sun-drenched beaches of Mexico. With the introduction of Chloé Craft, which sees the Maison increase the number of its products handcrafted by independent artisans; 58% of the collection made from lower-impact materials, and several collaborations with social enterprises, that love encompasses both people and the planet.  The collection is “all about love.”

Lensed by photographer Zoë Ghertner on Playa El Tecolote in Mexico, the shoot was styled by Camilla Nickerson and art directed by Peter Miles.

The campaign features dresses constructed using tubular laces made from deadstock printed silk, which have been macraméd together by World Fair Trade organisation guaranteed member Akanjo; ponchos hand painted with indigo stripes, and the Edith bag in multicolour patchwork amongst other designs.

VALENTINO SS2022 RENDEZ-VOUS Advertising Campaign

VALENTINO SS2022 RENDEZ-VOUS Advertising Campaign relies on the concept of motion, the encounter between the inside and outside, between a persona’s intimacy and social relationships. This is the leitmotif of the New Valentino Advertising Campaign starring Zendaya, shot and filmed at the Warner Bros. Studios, in Los Angeles. Zendaya floats from the backstage to the sunny streets encountering her community in a joyous polyphony of bodies in motion. A vibrant metaphorical journey permeated by a dancing soul on the notes of Crystalised by The XX. Stephen Galloway, Creative Movement Director, designed the choreography. Marcell Rev (from Euphoria) and Scott Sakamoto on an ever-following camera, explore the infinite possibilities of light, giving the video a vintage cinematographic taste that evokes the frames of the movies from the ‘80s. The vivid and radiant colours of the Valentino Rendez-Vous looks clash like brushstrokes with the neutral and timeless territory. An artistic expression and an opening to the world. The backstage, conceived by Happy Massee, is a factory in-between a photographic studio and an intimate loft. It is the interior place where the community of the campaign works, talks and shares moments of Joie de Vivre. In the continuous upside down of the production and making of all artists are actors of the campaign and at the same time spectators, including Pierpaolo Piccioli together with stylist Law Roach. The street enters the Maison with a diverse and magnetic humanity. The reciprocity of identities and the power of curiosity are the consequences of this human connection.

MALUMA - New Face of SS2022 VERSACE Man

Versace announces Maluma is the face of the latest Versace Men’s advertising campaign, wearing looks from the SS2022 collection in images by photographic duo Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott. Approachable yet immediately iconic, Maluma is portrayed in a number of different images in which he is pictured with his own dog, Buda, and the mega star shows himself to be #TeamVersace and #TeamDV in a varsity jacket finished with a range of brand motif patches and “Donatella” embroidered across the heart.

“When I met Maluma for the first time, immediately I felt his energy and his engaging personality. He is a forward thinker and never scared to challenge himself. He’s the kind of man that makes a difference and makes the world a better place, this makes him the perfect Versace man! I’m so excited to have Maluma in my new Spring Summer campaign.” - Donatella Versace

“For me, this is a dream come true to be the face of an iconic fashion house like Versace and continuing to represent Colombia globally through music, fashion and much more. Fashion is one of my biggest passions outside of music and being part of Donatella’s vision, and the Versace family, is an honor. Together, we have created memorable moments with custom performance and red carpet looks, magazine covers and the amazing Met Gala 2021 design. With this campaign, we are creating more memories as a fashion family together. One of my greatest highlights for 2022 will be my dog Buda in his first campaign with me - a man’s best friend joins fashion. This is to many more memories with my Versace family.” Says Maluma.

Hermès Summer 2022 Men’s Ready-To-Wear Collection

Hermès Summer 2022 Men’s Ready-To-Wear Collection is about a sense of lightness, relaxation and freedom. It is a response to our need for wider perspectives, for the great outdoors. It is an invention and reinvention of a wardrobe in which different fabrics are interwoven, and where technical innovation finds inspiration in craftwork legacy.

Depth and fantasy: a duality of spirit shaking up appearances. Paper becomes fabric, Toilbright and a cotton cover fuse together, leather is enlivened with bursts of colour and stitching graphics. Forms in trompe-l’oeil: overshirts, double jacket-cardigans, coats and parkas in two materials.

 

 This hybrid approach ushers in a renewed elegance synonymous with energized and flexible shapes: the seemingly casual style belies a structured sophistication to the night as it fades in from the day. Innovation and precision, a dialogue with legacy patterns devoured, blurred, perforated and otherwise transformed by modern techniques.

A harmonious play on contrasts accentuate the colours. Celadon-green, algae, chocolate, and carbon hues blend with the softness of faded rose, stone-grey and raw-silk. A bright, soft sweater, a daisy pattern and large Bermuda shorts embody this liberated relaxation. Suffused with optimism and energy, this creative collection is bursting with the vitality of a world reclaimed.
