Objets Hermès AW2022 Collection - mylifestylenews Top 10's Pick

The 90cm animal kingdom brings the diversity of its motifs and vivacity of its colours to these paper lanterns in geometric shapes, designed by Katie Scott.

The Kelly II Sellier bag sees its silhouette revisited and rewrites the rulebook with an asymmetrical recto-verso “en désordre” construction, switching up conventions and inventing a new equilibrium. An original new story that also includes the Bolide and Birkin bags.

The R.M.S line, featuring a suitcase with a new design by Katie Scott, welcomes a small holdall in canvas and leather: the R.M.S 12h bag. Thanks to its strap, this practical bag can be attached to the telescopic handle of the suitcase. Its construction also makes it possible to fold it down flat when empty, allowing it to be slipped inside.

The Épopée motif created by Jan Bajtlik lends its playful spirit and vivid colours to these hand-lacquered wooden boxes made especially for a child’s room. Of varying heights, the boxes can be stacked to form a totem.

This bandana version of the twilly doll features the Hermès-Paris Station design and two-tone striped trim.

A new iteration for the Bolide mini bag, complete with skateboard wheels. A veritable concentrate of leather craftsmanship, this fun and offbeat, yet very practical, version comes in multiple colour schemes.

The emblematic Cape Cod welcomes a new dial with a unique aesthetic, the fruit of an innovative process developed in collaboration with the Swiss Centre for Electronics and Microtechnology. The dial, a silicon wafer plate, is specially treated and inlaid with gold to reveal the blue-tinged nuances of the Crépuscule motif by designer and graphic artist Thanh-Phong Lê. Its intimate and refined appearance is underlined by a single or double tour band in navy blue calfskin.

Hand woven and inspired by Art Deco, the graphic composition decorating this cashmere cushion is inspired by an Hermès advertisement from the late 1920s.

These jewellery pieces are designed by Juana and Ddiddue Etcheberry, the first laureates of the Hermès fashion accessories contest, launched by the house in 2020 for the Festival de Hyères. They bring together leather and metal in a balanced geometry where elementary forms coexist. The bracelet is composed of a square leather cuff that seems to float between two metal circles. The torque combines a leather necklace and two golden rings, adorning the neck in a halo of soft, glowing light.

With its graphic shapes and its vivid colours, this design by Geoff McFetridge evokes the great American musicals. Seen from unexpected angles, silhouettes swirl, twirl, and tap dance on giant letters forming the name Gene Kelly.

TOMMY HILFIGER Introduces Fall 2022 “TH MONOGRAM” Collection

Tommy Hilfiger created a new monogram with celebrated British illustrator and graphic designer Fergus Purcell. Building on the Company’s history of collaborating with the most significant contemporary creatives, the monogram reimagines the TOMMY HILFIGER brand’s core DNA, and will appear for the first time in the Fall 2022 collection. The new design is the result of extensive research into the TOMMY HILFIGER archive. Purcell has created a bold reinterpretation of the motifs he discovered on iconic pieces from the brand’s design history. Created from an interlocking T and H, the monogram collides the classic with the new, bringing a new perspective to prep sensibility: as such, it is quintessentially TOMMY HILFIGER. “Since 1985, the ‘TH’ monogram has stood for authentic prep style, playfully reinvented for all,” says Tommy Hilfiger. “Fergus Purcell has been a truly inspiring collaborator. His elevated approach and connection to street culture is unique. It has been a joy to reinvent our monogram with him - for 2022 and beyond.” “What I love about the brand is that it’s high impact; very colourful, very confident and very immediate.” adds Fergus. “These were the inspirations that drove my design, and the desire to make something that was new and iconic but also felt as though it could have existed already. I’m very pleased with the results!” Purcell’s new motif has inspired Tommy Hilfiger’s Fall 2022 “TH Monogram” collection, which brings a forward-thinking spirit to East Coast heritage style across men’s, women’s and kidswear. Premium monogrammed pieces are offered in the brand’s signature Burgundy, Navy and Snow White. On puffers, accessories and unisex styles, the monogram is abstracted into an all-over pattern, whilst on the iconic Rocky Parker and across tailoring, it is depicted as a tonal lattice. Shifts in scale reflect the dynamic versatility of this new brand mark. Refined fabrication and detailing elevate the offering. Casualwear is crafted in premium wool and recycled yarns. Prep classics are filled with recycled down and feature intricate jacquard. Statement-placed embroidered monograms, leather paneling and metal-trim buttons embellish throughout. Just as the monogram, with its differently-sized letters, is perfectly imperfect, the collection is infused with unexpected aesthetic twists that disrupt the status quo. Each piece can be adjusted and layered to reflect an individual’s personal style. Silhouettes can be reworked and reimagined.

VALENTINO FALL 2022 Advertising Campaign

“Wear it however you want.”

“I always think my work is to take a new picture of something that you know already,” says Pierpaolo Piccioli, Creative Director of Maison Valentino. “I do it with new life and new shapes, so you view the landscape from my way of seeing.” Piccioli is talking about his Valentino Promenade Fall 2022 womenswear collection and Valentino After Club Fall 2022 menswear collection, and its accompanying campaign, titled “Portrait of a Generation”. The pieces take signatures from Valentino’s heritage and put them in fresh light: stripes and zebra prints, capes and blouses, prints and embroideries. “When Mr Valentino started designing, there were so many rules for how you wore clothes,” says Piccioli. “Now, fashion is about self-realisation. This collection is shifting Valentino to this new world, giving new meaning to the codes and values.” A floor-length dragon print silk shirt can be worn as a dress, a summer coat, “we don’t need to define it,” says Piccioli.

A cropped striped sweater is worn with a utilitarian jacket, mini-skirt and Valentino Garavani sneakers. An embroidered cape, minimal in cut but maximal in detail, is worn with a simple sweater, leather pants and Valentino Garavani VLogo Chain loafers. To capture the collection, portraits were taken on the street at Arnold Circus, East London. Furniture was used to give the sense of stooping, an urban tradition where items are left on the street for others to take.

Casting was about attitude, “not treating them as models but as humans,” says Piccioli. “We wanted to dress them the way they dress in their own life. It is about individuality and uniqueness, which connects to my work in Couture. It is about diversity and inclusivity. It is about community.”  At the heart of Arnold Circus is a raised garden, centred by a bandstand. The gardens are cared for and planted by volunteers from the community. Valentino has made a donation to the Friends of Arnold Circus for the shoot. “I love that the community takes care of the place,” says Piccioli. “It is an idea of a city that I like. You share something, you take care of something together.” The area reminds Piccioli of his hometown. 

“Roma is about all these layers of eras, people and cultures,” he says. “It is the harmony of what is different, in an effortless beauty that comes from all layers together in balance.” These are the layers that make up Piccioli’s work: the heritage, the new generation, his own point of view. “I like that these designs have a sense of freedom,” he says, “forgetting rules and going into the next chapter in a very free way.”

GIORGIO ARMANI AW2033/23 Men's Advertising Campaign

GIORGIO Armani AW2033/23 Men's Advertising Campaign stars Scott Eastwood and was shot by Mert and Marcus (photographer duo Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott) and styled by Anna Dello Russo. The campaign features the actor Eastwood in a minimal film that alternates between colour and black-and-white. A man, whose strong personality emerges, is portrayed in an environment reduced to a pure geometric backdrop in which the sole scenic element is an armchair with a square structure. 

His direct gaze to the camera and the poses he adopts reinforce his sensual and mindful physicality. Clothes, accessories and glasses smoothly accompany body and gestures to express an elegant sobriety.

Giuseppe Zanotti Introduces The Cobras Gold Edition Sneaker

Giuseppe Zanotti introduces the latest version of the iconic sneaker: Cobras, Gold Edition which made its debut last year is shedding its skin this Fall to make way for a new streetstyle king. Like the original sneaker, the engineered, fantastical low-top features a 3D cobra that wraps around the body of the shoe, its head slyly sitting atop the toe. However, the exclusive new style goes one step further with the snake motif is coated in a sleek gold patina. A stark contrast against optical white or inky black leather, the gilded new tread transforms the sneaker into a kind of modern-day talisman: iconic, bold and invigorated with confidence and swagger. From its scaled and sculpted golden body to its eyes set with crystals to the gilded serpent pattern reappearing on the sole, the Cobras Gold Edition is akin to a phoenix rising to new heights.  “I have always been fascinated with the powerful symbolism of the snake,” says Giuseppe Zanotti. “For this special new edition, I wanted to evoke even more power—almost regal-like, long-standing and precious, a kind of unearthed ancient relic reimagined for today.”

Dior Fall 2022 Advertising Campaign

Dior Fall 2022 advertising campaign reflects a renewed sense of self-affirmation, highlighting a powerful, multiform femininity. It pays homage to the fascinating figures who contributed to Monsieur Dior’s success, from sister Catherine to muse Mizza Bricard and loyal collaborator Marguerite Carré. With her Dior Fall 2022 line, Maria Grazia Chiuri initiated a dialogue between the history of Dior and the contemporary world, which has now been brought to life through group portraits shot by Alice Mann.

The emblematic Dior family burlap bags have been transformed into a symbol of sisterhood – in keeping with a major inspiration for the line, namely uniforms – with the motto “L'union fait la force” (“Strength through unity”) adorning skirts and jackets, alongside the iconic Dior Book Tote. The daring looks come alive for the South African artist’s lens, expressing fundamental values such as togetherness and sharing. The final surprises are the unmissable Lady D-Joy, Lady Dior, Dior Vibe and Diorcamp, all of which are the quintessence of Dior style. These images are imbued with a collective force that celebrates the heritage, vision and inventiveness of the house of Dior.
