Oyadeas! The Burberry Holiday 2023 Campaign Is A Splendiferous Emotional Getaway
/
Oyadeas! I simply adore Creative Director Daniel Lee’s Burberry Holiday [IG] 2023 campaign. ADORE IT!! It’s charming, genuine, not camp but quiet luxury gone a tiny bit wild.
Roe Ethridge [IG] shoots this precious masterpiece, with creative direction by Carina Frey and Stefanie Barth.
The logo fully communicates Burberry without ruining the larger-image, buy-me item. He’s leaving before you can be annoyed with him — sort of like an apparition. He’s like “Chill, Anne, I’m leaving.”
Actually the Burberry knight reminds me of the Tribute of Light show outside my high-floor, lower Manhattan window after Sept. 11 in New York. Tribute always came to visit us and even stayed the night. But then he was gone when I woke up, off to bring a bit of hope and serenity elsewhere in our complicated world.
For a couple years we tried to trap him for at least a cup of morning French Roast, but Tribute always outsmarted us, slipping out the window at dawn.

/
Billie Eilish is back at Gucci and let’s applaud that move. Without question Billie is a bridge between the respective visions of the two creative directors — Alessandro Michele and now Sabato De Sarno.
For Gucci, Billie Eilish has teamed up on a greenish version of their iconic Horsebit 1955 bag. The new version is crafted from Demetra, a 75% plant-based, animal-free material that has been produced in Italy since 2021.
Gucci launched sneakers made of Demetra two years ago. The bags also use recycled ECONYL nylon made from regenerated ghost nets, carpets, and pre-consumer waste. Prada and Burberry were leaders in the development of ECONYL with products coming to market in 2019. Demetra is tanned in accordance with Gucci’s century-old standard practices.

If sexy is returning to fashion, then Louboutin is on pointe with his latest additions to Louboutin Beauty, with designs so visually-compelling, competitiors would be recklessly-stupid to copy them.

Read MoreWith Her ‘Plan de Paris’ Dior Vision, Maria Grazia Chiuri Triples Dior Revenues in 7 Years
/
Clearly the archival map print has achieved major status at Dior, as it rolls forward into fall with a major campaign.
Dior’s Maria Grazia Chiuri is simply the best of the luxury brand story tellers. On Monday, the creative director was profiled in WWD with that rare breakdown of financial information for a LVMH brand. I knew Dior has done very well, but not that Chiuri has tripled the Dior business in less than seven years. That’s extraordinary.
Tonight, October 24, WWD will present Chiuri with its John B. Fairchild Honor at an awards ceremony in New York City.
Can you imagine how much impact the ‘Plan de Paris’ print will have with the Paris 2024 Olympics? It’s so exciting to see a female creative director have such huge financial impact on one of the world’s premier luxury brands. Bravo Maria Grazia Chiuri!! You are an inspiration for us all. Thank you! ~ Anne

/
Jennifer Lopez has appeared before with Intimissimi lingerie. Now the brand’s global ambassador serves as a co-designer of the new collection, inviting us all to experience ‘la dolce vita’.
Anne of Carversville has always stood for the nurturing benefits of beautiful lingerie and we’re thrilled with the new Jennifer Lopez “This is Me…Now” collection.
Both Italy and France have long celebrated the sex appeal of older women, unlike America where we’ve been washed up at age 35. There’s a good reason why Anne so loves Italy and France and why she’s worked so hard professionally to change America’s perception of aging and sensual women.

Relax everyone. This Moschino woman just loves being a provocateur. And Carlyne Cerf de Dudzeele knows how to style the look, so that it becomes French bourgeois to the max.
Read MoreLoro 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.”

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.
Read MoreFerrari Fall -Winter 2023 Campaign Shot by Heji Shin Is Not So Quiet, Modern Luxury

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.
