Versace Icons Make a Comeback

After nearly three decades, Mark Vanderloo and Ivan De Pineda return to star in the new Versace Men’s S/S 2023 campaign.

Mark Vanderloo and Ivan De Pineda

Chief Creative Officer: Donatella Versace; Campaign Creative Director: Kevin Tekinel, Charles Levai; Photographers: Mert Alas & Marcus Piggott; Starring: Mark Vanderloo, Ivan De Pineda, Ottawa Kwami, Anthony Thomason, Mark Vanderloo Junior; Casting Director: Piergiorgio Del Moro; Stylist: Jacob K; Hair Stylist: Anthony Turner;Makeup Artist: Sam Visser.

As a tribute to past photographers, Mert & Marcus created a series of studio portraits, echoing the original 1996 campaign where both male supermodels made their Versace debut. Both men wore fluid satin coats and tailored separates defining Versace’s proposition of modern male opulence.

“I love these images of Mark and Ivan. Since the 90’s they have defined what it is to be powerful, sexy, sensitive and caring. They are true Versace men—not afraid of expressing their creativity through clothing and their friendship through the closeness of their relationship.” – Donatella Versace

Models Ottawa Kwami, Anthony Thomason, and Mark Vanderloo Junior also starred in the campaign wearing monocolour knitwear, body-fitting tops, diamond-slashed leather, golden jewellery, and ready-to-wear separates and accessories in the Versace Allover motif. Take a look at the collection here.
