Loro Piana Malibu Dinner for New 'Cocooning Collection' Was a Feast of Neutrals
/
Italian quiet luxury brand Loro Piana held a dinner party in Malibu on October 10th. The purpose was a cozy celebration for its third ‘Cocooning Collection’, appropriately held at a private beachside villa along the Pacific Coast Highway.
The evening was rich in Loro Piana’s preference for neutral colors. In concert with the natural beachside environment, neutrals permeated every visualization from the guests’ attire to the interior design and even table settings.
The fine-tuning evolution around the LVMH brand Loro Piana [called Loro by insiders] is led by chief executive Damien Bertrand, who took the veins of the deeply respected luxury house about two years ago. He is passionate about his assignment.
“We have the best fibres in the world, and this is the work of the Loro Piana family for six generations. These are fibres, and people tend to forget, that come from animals; like humans, if they are eating well, being treated well and sleeping well, the quality of the fibres is better. If you are looking at what we have done at Loro Piana, there is no one else that does it.”

Tiffany house ambassador and new bride Anya Taylor-Joy poses in the new Tiffany & Co. ‘Blue Blook 2023: Out of the Blue’ collection.
Chief Artistic Officer Nathalie Verdeille both perpetuates and reinvents the aquatic worlds dreamt up by legendary Tiffany & Co. designer Jean Schlumberger. See our AOC Sunday post Tiffany and Co’s “Blue Book 2023: Out of the Blue” High Jewelry in Grazia International.
The jewelry artist posessed with an extraordinary imagination and technical skills set first recognized by Elsa Schiaparelli in the 1930s, when she employed him to made spectacular buttons. Subsequently, Schiaparelli commissioned Schulumberger to design costume jewelry for clients.
In 1956, Tiffany & Co president Walter Hoving asked Schlumberger to begin designing for the firm. Disallowed by his parents to pursue any formal training in the jewelry arts, Schlumberger had his own workshop at the company until the late 1970s, when he retired.

Ferrari has released its Fall 2023 campaign by Creative Director Rocco Iannone. German photographer born in Seoul Heji Shin [IG] turns her focus to models/influencer Anthi Fakidari, Chloe Oh, and Jean Carlo Leon, in images styled by Jacob K. / Hair by Franco Gobbi; makeup by Arianna Cattarin
The luxury car sector is nearly twice as large as the luxury personal goods category, according to Anita Balchandani, senior partner at management consultancy McKinsey, who leads on fashion and luxury in EMEA [Europe, the Middle East and Africa.] She is among the marketing experts who believes that Ferrari can become a luxury lifestyle brand.
“My motors have a soul,” said Enzo Ferrari famously.
If customers support the ‘spirit’ of their Ferrari supercars, and with a quiet laugh, consider them treasured members of the family, this is a quiet luxury power to be harnessed — even if we’re looking at a Formula One racing car.

Polo Ralph Lauren Fall 2023 Campaign by Richard Phibbs | AOC on Color Barriers in Education
/
As an American — and long before I launched Anne of Carversville in 2007 — Ralph Lauren represented the American dream to me. Lauren has successfully woven America’s stories into the very fabric of his brand, creating a unique narrative like no other American designer.
Today, an older, wiser, and a more empathetic Ralph Lauren stands at the crossroads of American democracy. In the same moment, I am pouring over the details of American history on a daily basis and grabbing every creative opportunity to talk about them.
When you put Polo Ralph Lauren together with Richard Phibbs [IG] as photographer, Anne’s day is derailed as I decide what to write. Poor Phibbs. He always inspires deep thinking at AOC.
AOC totally supports taking some liberties with campaign visuals, but I also sense an obligation for AOC to share facts of history along the way. Ralph Lauren has mastered this art of visual inclusivity and Richard Phibbs has some of the keenest instincts I know about when taking this path of “how history could have been if only there were more of us and fewer of them.”

/
Massimo Dutti chooses Villa Cavrois as the site of its Limited Edition Fall-Winter 2023 Collection campaign.
AOC isn’t prepared to make the case for the influence of Italian futurism in the campaign. But the film supporting the Massimo Dutti campaign with models Rebecca Leigh Longendyke, Ji Shun, Ylang Messenguiral, and Cyrielle Lalande has a very self-absorbed intellectualism.
Colin Dodgson [IG] is the photographer, with film direction by MartinSalvador Studio [IG].
This campaign is fascinatingly well done in AOC’s opinion. I’ll be thinking about it. ~ Anne
Read MoreBrunello Cucinelli Spring 2024 Collection Echoes Italian Humanist Luxury Values

Brunello Cucinelli is luxury fashion’s philosopher king, a practioner of slow fashion, quiet luxury, stealth wealth — multiple words that describe the Spring 2024 collection that emerged from the medieval Italian town of Solomeo from humanism’s bright north star.
The most important words may be Italian humanist luxury values. Cucinelli is driven by humanism, which is not a top priority among brands.

Read MoreDaria Werbowy Plunges Into Gucci's Marina Chain Campaign Lensed by David Sims
/
Canadian-Ukrainian fashion model goddess Daria Werbowy has been sorely missed since she left fashion modeling in 2016.
Daria is set to return to fashion world — on her terms and ONLY on her terms. Phoebe Philo’s eponymous new label, due to launch in September but not with a runway show, delivers a long-anticipated re-pairing of artist and muse.
Apparently, Daria Werbowy is also part of the Gucci relaunch. In these new images, the model and muse is seen in the chunky gold Gucci Marina Chain jewelry, magnifying an archival motif inspired by the maritime world.
It’s expected that Daria Werbowy will be the face of a larger fashion campaign, beyond this jewelry release photographed in Los Angeles at Chateau Marmont by David Sims [IG], with styling by Alastair McKimm.
Anne of Carversville doesn’t have current Daria Werbowy archives, but we’re spending a lot of time reassembling her best work in our very successful project of refreshing archives pre-2020. Note that these redone archives aren’t in chronological order.
