The Valentino Avant Les Début holiday season campaign is here.
Valentino Avant Les Débuts Holiday Season Campaign
Tis the season to be merry with Valentino. Just in time for the holidays, Valentino unveils their latest holiday season campaign brimming with plenty of glitz and glamour. Under the helm of creative director Alessandro Michele, the campaign features key pieces from Michele’s debut collection for the House. Comprising a total of 171 looks for both men’s and women’s, the surprise collection explores the codes of the House steeped in nostalgia.
“In this delicate passage of memorial revisitation, I tried to reimagine Maison Valentino, starting from the mythical Mignanelli palace, historical headquarters of the brand.”
Past and present intertwine to create an iridescent mix of contrasts that reflect Michele’s vision for the collection. At the heart of the collection, Michele draws influence from the language of cinema looking to the aesthetics “suspended between the neorealism of Luchino Visconti, the visual symbolism of Ingmar Bergman and the magic realism of Federico Fellini”.
“I was looking for a patina that evoked the Rome of cinema, with its aura and its iconic tones. I wanted the result to truly appear as a fragment of a film where the Dionysian atmosphere of a bacchanalia of the ancient Rome relived in the splendour of the seventies, getting to contaminate our present. A present that is untimely, misaligned, anachronistic and, because of that, extremely contemporary,” says Michele in a statement.
