With a backdrop of theatrical curtains, the silhouettes created by Fendi, Artistic Director of Couture and Womenswear Kim Jones simultaneously channeled Roman elegance and British style, both infused with unbridled freedom.
Fendi’s 1984 archives provided the creative spark for this new collection. Inspired by the amalgam of genres, mixing utilitarian outfits and sumptuous fabrics, Kim Jones continues to articulate his vision of Fendi women. Uniting opposites, the silhouettes bridge utilitarian and extravagant, town and country.
In an autumnal palette dominated by warm browns and Bordeaux, leather riding boots and thigh-high boots elongate the silhouettes. Coats borrows plush comfort from bathrobes, and wools employed traditional British styles such as the Aran and Guernesey. Sleek second skin knitwear or utilitarian dresses express a nonchalant feminine sensuality.
Roman statuary embraces movement in prints or embroidery with gossamer transparency. The statues impart ethereal élan in tulle and organza. The Selleria stitch ties the present to the past as a motif on clothing and accessories, including the delightfully startling Chupa Chups® lollipop holder, as well as jewels from the collection designed by Delfina Delettrez Fendi, Artistic Director of Jewelry, who also created wide stackable bracelets and giant chains to encircle the neck. Bags designed by Silvia Venturini Fendi, Artistic Director of Accessories and Menswear, feature the new Simply and Roll models which can be worn in a vast variety of ways, underscoring the multiplicity of Fendi women.
En la pintoresca región de la Toscana, donde los tonos dorados del otoño besaban los viñedos y las calles históricas, se desarrolló el siguiente capítulo de “A Father and Son Tale FW23” para Paul&Shark. Pierce Brosnan, personificación del estilo atemporal, y su hijo artístico, Paris, se embarcaron en un viaje que trascendió la moda y se aventuró en el corazón de los lazos familiares.
Bajo la perspicaz lente de Giampaolo Sgura, el fotógrafo de renombre mundial, y con el diseño del ícono de la moda Anna Dello Russo, la campaña cobró vida con una narrativa que celebraba la esencia de la familia, la herencia y la moda impecable.
La campaña comenzó con el icónico Pierce Brosnan, símbolo de sofisticación, recorriendo las encantadoras calles de la Toscana en un automóvil antiguo. Envuelto en un lujoso jersey azul de punto acanalado de la colección FW23, exudaba un aura de elegancia natural que sólo un hombre de su estatura podía transmitir.
A su lado estaba París, portadora de la antorcha de una nueva generación de estilo y creatividad. Envuelto en prendas de abrigo acolchadas y capas de cuello alto, encarnaba la esencia moderna de Paul&Shark. La interacción de generaciones fue evidente, cada una complementándose entre sí en una hermosa armonía de moda y familia.
En medio de la belleza natural de la Toscana, la familia Brosnan se deleitaba con los placeres sencillos. Colocaron mantas a cuadros sobre el césped, abrazando la serenidad de la naturaleza. Jugando a las cartas, vistiendo suéteres de punto grueso y camisas azul pálido, su alegría y unión irradiaban a través de la lente, capturando la esencia del amor y la unidad familiar.
A medida que se desarrolló la campaña, se hizo evidente que Paul&Shark era más que una simple marca para la familia Brosnan; era una extensión de sus valores y estilo, entretejida en el tejido de sus vidas. Simbolizaba la herencia que apreciaban, un testimonio de calidad y atemporalidad.
En medio de esta pintoresca historia, la colección FW23 de Paul&Shark brilló. La combinación de diseños clásicos con una estética moderna fue un testimonio del compromiso de la marca con la evolución preservando al mismo tiempo sus raíces. La colección, una obra maestra de la artesanía italiana, se hizo eco del sentimiento del cuento de la familia Brosnan: eterno, clásico y profundamente arraigado en una rica herencia.
Para concluir, la campaña FW23 de Paul&Shark, “A Father and Son Tale”, no solo mostró su excepcional colección sino que también honró la hermosa narrativa de la familia y la moda, una historia que resonó en el mundo, recordando a todos que más allá de los hilos y las telas, la moda es una celebración de la vida y los vínculos que la definen.

At the Viva Technology show, LVMH announced a partnership with Epic Games, creator of Fortnite and Unreal Engine, to transform the Group’s creative pipeline and bring customers new types of immersive products discovery experiences. This strategic partnership will empower LVMH and its Maisons to further utilize Epic’s powerful 3D creation tools to offer experiences like virtual fitting rooms and fashions shows, 360 product carousels, augmented reality, creation of digital twins and more.
These tools, including Unreal Engine, Reality Capture, Twinmotion, and MetaHuman technology will help LVMH unlock significant growth opportunities. With a resolutely future-facing spirit, LVMH and its Maisons have continually updated their offering to engage with new practices while respecting their timeless assets and heritage. This same ethos guides the partnership forged with Epic Games. LVMH will be able to leverage the world-renowned expertise of Epic to enrich the experiences proposed to its customers in virtual worlds, tightening an alignment with the Group’s core strengths in the real world – the inimitable know-how of its production workshops and ownership of its networks of stores.
What’s more, collaborating with Epic will expand the expertise of LVMH teams, reflecting the priority the Group places on nurturing the digital acculturation of its people.
“We have always been committed to innovations with the potential to bring our customers new experiences. Interactive games, which have developed into a full-fledged cultural phenomenon, are a perfect example. The partnership with Epic Games will accelerate our expertise in 3D tools and ecosystems, from the creation of new collections to ad campaigns and to our Maisons’ websites. We will also engage more effectively with young generations who are very much at ease with these codes and uses” says Toni Belloni, LVMH Group Managing Director.
“With this partnership, we will work with LVMH’s designers to transform physical and digital product creation using Epic’s suite of advanced creator tools. We are excited to accelerate the Group’s adoption of Unreal Engine, Reality Capture, Twinmotion and MetaHuman technology, and help LVMH’s global brands engage with customers through immersive digital experiences,” says Bill Clifford, VP, Unreal Engine at Epic Games.
Solutions already deployed at LVMH Maisons
Several LVMH Maisons have already successfully adopted solutions from Epic. During Viva Technology in 2022, Bulgari unveiled a captivating metaverse experience inspired by ancient Rome dubbed “Virtual Rome”. The project was developed using Epic’s Unreal Engine 5, resulting in stunning realism.
Also at Viva Technology in 2022, LVMH presented Livi, its first virtual ambassador and face of innovation, developed and brought to virtual life thanks to Unreal Engine and MetaHuman technology, Epic’s framework for creating highly realistic digital humans.
This year another iconic LVMH Maison, Louis Vuitton, will present the “Digital Show Experience” at the LVMH Pavilion, designed using Epic’s Unreal Engine 5, MetaHuman technology and Reality Capture. This six-minute interactive and immersive experience will let visitors relive the 2023 Fall-Winter Men’s show, which took place at the famous Louvre Cour Carrée in January 2023. Visitors will discover a selection of looks and creations from the Louis Vuitton men’s collection during a digital journey through the seven rooms in the décor of the show.

Christie’s Inside the Orange Box: part III of a dazzling Hermès collection
More than 300 Hermès lots — ‘synonymous with grace across generations’ — from Birkins and Kellys to bracelets, watches and accessories, are being offered online until 28 June
No bag is as coveted at auction as the Hermès Birkin. ‘For handbag collectors, they are the ultimate status symbol,’ says vintage fashion expert Pénélope Blanckaert. ‘They are more than fashion accessories — they are art.’
It takes a single expert craftsman up to 40 hours to produce a Birkin bag. The stitch on which the brand’s reputation is based — the saddle — cannot be replicated by a machine; it takes two needles simultaneously passing through the same seam to produce a Birkin correctly. If done properly, the saddle stitch will never unravel — whether on a saddle or a Birkin.
‘Hermès is a maison that celebrates craftsmanship and material, especially leather, as a part of its history and heritage,’ explains Blanckaert. ‘“It” bags are created every season, but Birkins are trend-resistant — they will never go out of fashion.’
Besides its durability, part of the Birkin’s allure is its timeless, all-purpose design. The bag was famously born out of a chance meeting between actress Jane Birkin and Jean-Louis Dumas, then creative director of Hermès, on a flight from Paris to London. And since its inception in 1983, the leather carry-all with flap closure has been a must-have for fashion stylists and A-list celebrities, whether they’re shopping for groceries or posing on the red carpet. Jennifer Lopez has even used hers as a gym bag.
‘Hermès is synonymous with elegance across generations,’ says Blanckaert. ‘The Birkin or Kelly that used to belong to your mother or grandmother still looks stylish today — as long as it’s in good condition.’
Those made with jewels and precious materials, such as ostrich and crocodile, tend to achieve the highest prices at auction. ‘Light pinks, yellows and blues also do well,’ adds Blanckaert, ‘as do the strong colours, such as Rouge Hermès, and special-order bags with bespoke colour pairings and the highly desirable horseshoe stamp.’
In recent years, the secondary market for Hermès has matured, expanding from a niche collecting category into an important luxury sector that draws buyers from all over the world. Christie’s, for instance, now sees participation from more than 50 countries in its Handbags & Accessories sales, with single-owner auctions taking place this year in Amsterdam for the first time.
‘It is the fastest-growing sector of the fashion industry, because collectors are now more concerned with sustainability and acquiring long-term investment pieces,’ says Blanckaert. ‘Buying at auction also offers collectors the chance to acquire discontinued pieces — and to bypass Hermès’s notorious waiting lists.’
Which, of course, drives auction prices up. In 2021, a Hermès Himalaya Diamond Kelly 28 became the most valuable handbag ever sold at auction when it achieved HK$4 million (US$515,416) at Christie’s in Hong Kong.
‘This encyclopaedic catalogue represents a lifetime of collecting by a passionate connoisseur of all things Hermès,’ says Blanckaert. ‘It is such a joyful collection, full of colour, poetry and fantasy.’
As well as featuring the most desirable styles from the past few decades, the collection also includes playful designs and objects that reveal a lesser-known side of the French maison.
‘People may be surprised by what they see,’ says Blanckaert. ‘This collector had a real sense of humour. She took risks by acquiring unique editions and pieces not instantly recognisable as Hermès.’
These include a whimsical selection of Sacs à Malices (which translates as ‘bags of tricks’), first introduced in the 1980s, and a range of quirky pieces from Petit H, the upcycling line created in 2010 by Pascale Mussard, which comprises unique or limited-edition objects, designs and shapes made from existing Hermès materials.
As for Petit H, Blanckaert was drawn to a set of nine tools and an unusual fringed white Clémence leather bag with black polka dots from 2010. ‘You wouldn’t necessarily think this was by Hermès,’ she says, ‘which shows the collector’s confidence and sensitivity towards all aspects of Hermès’s creativity.’
‘Hermès was the first luxury brand to invest in the circular economy, so Petit H was very avant-garde at the time,’ says Blanckaert. ‘Petit H designs are bolder and less typically Hermès in style and structure.’
In addition to the handbags offered for sale in Part III, there is a diverse range of Hermès accessories, including bracelets, watches, notebooks, belts, silk scarves and Grigri Rodeo charms (below), which have been coveted by collectors since their launch.

The new fragrance: A journey to Panama with Magnetic Amber
With Magnetic Amber, Grasse-born Master Perfumer Karine Dubreuil-Sereni takes us on an olfactory voyage to a land of fascinating contrasts inspired by the treasure of exotic Panama: white amber.
“Whenever I work on a project for Bentley, the words that immediately come to my mind are: luxury, refinement, elegance, and use of the finest raw materials”, Karine Dubreuil-Sereni explains.
Her creation opens with the dazzling light of the sunny bergamot from Italy, laced with aromatic rosemary from Morocco and a lemony green, flash of cardamom – “a cold spice that also has hot facets”, the perfumer points out. Mysterious, resinous olibanum adds its citrus-like, warm, softly woody tones to the fresh accords.
As the fragrance unfolds, it reveals the seductive warmth of its heart with two natural jewels native to South America: sensual, smoky vanilla (sourced from Madagascar) and tonka bean with its almond and tobacco facets.
These delectable gourmand scents meld into the smooth white amber that gives its name to the scent. “The note comes from Ambroxan, a raw material yielded by clary sage”, Karine Dubreuil-Sereni explains. Salty, smooth, conjuring driftwood, sun-warmed skin and amber, it is almost an addictive perfume in itself. The key to the perfume’s unique magnetism.
In Magnetic Amber, this captivating note is highlighted by the warm resinous scent of labdanum, bolstered by elegant cedar from Virginia to create a rich, potent drydown extending far into the sweet-breezed Panamanian night.
A majestic flacon reflecting the luxury codes of the marque
Drawing on the expertise of Bentley Motors’ design studio, the flacon and packaging of Bentley BEYOND The Collection uphold the same exacting standards and attention to detail as the marque’s motorcars.
With Magnetic Amber, the Collection introduces a new, eco-friendly, natural material, wood. Echoing the natural materials used in the fragrance, wood is featured in the form of a ring on the bottle’s cap, and on the plate of the beige coffret.
The majestic faceted flacon is inspired by the signature cut-crystal glass headlights of the Continental GT. The stability of the heavy 400-gram bottle is ensured by a thick glass base. The legendary “Winged B” logo is engraved on the silver metal shoulders of the flacon.
The alluring amber colour of the scent reflects the new fragrance’s soul: Intriguing. Delicious. Addictive. An imperial olfactory journey through South America’s best kept secrets: its smoky rums, sweet woods and delectable petals.
