#Astonmartinf1 #AstonMartinF1xKimoa #TodoAlVerde

The collection, jointly designed by Kimoa and AMF1, will be on sale at Kimoa.com and other motorsport channels

Madrid, February 28, 2023. Kimoa joins forces with the Aston Martin Aramco Cognizant Formula One Team with driver Fernando Alonso to launch the “FA AMF1 Collection”.

Kimoa’s relationship with the premier motor category is linked to its co-founder, Fernando Alonso, since the launch of the brand in 2017. With the driver joining the British team, this relationship is destined to continue. In this regard Kimoa launches its most special collection to date, with new product categories that complement the already iconic caps.

Here is the announcement of a long-awaited partnership “I am tremendously proud of what we have achieved with Kimoa over the years. The strong commitment to using recycled materials with which we have managed to combine quality, design, and responsibility with the environment, have been the result of strong investments in R&D. When presenting the project to the Aston Martin F1 team and passing its demanding quality and design standards, we knew that the effort of these years was worth it”, states Fernando Alonso.

The Fernando Alonso capsule collection of the Aston Martin F1 Team is made up of two t-shirts, one sweatshirt, one hoodie, two polo shirts, a windbreaker, and three caps. In addition, Kimoa is launching the hoodie and one of the t-shirts in kids size. The entire collection is a tribute to the flagship colours of Aston Martin with green as the main color, accented fluorine lime, and black, which merges the distinctive elements of the Asturian driver: the number 14 and his iconic logo with a lightning bolt. Reinventing the classic patterns that maintain the traditional essence of the team adapted to the new times.

This collection is the first work under the creative direction of María Núñez, who has taken special care in the details of the garments, incorporating technical finishes such as heat-sealing and silicone prints and maintaining the Kimoa philosophy with the use of recycled cotton, organic cotton, pre-consumer cotton, and recycled polyester.

The pre-order of the collection is available today at www.kimoa.com/AstonMartin . Shortly it will be available at the new SimplyEV Superstore in Wynwood, Kimoa’s preferred point of sale, the AMF1 e-comm store and other global retailers. The collection.

Manolo Blahnik for ELVIS

Manolo Blahnik has partnered with Academy Award-winning costume designer Catherine Martin to create a selection of custom shoes for Baz Luhrmann’s larger-than-life film, Elvis, from Warner Bros. Pictures.

Inspired by existing Manolo Blahnik silhouettes, the shoes can be seen throughout the film on Elvis Presley (played by Austin Butler) and also on Jerry Schilling (played by Luke Bracey), who portrays the artist’s longtime associate. Manolo Blahnik and Martin have partnered together in the past, creating shoes for Luhrmann’s 2001 Oscar-winning film Moulin Rouge!.

“It has been an honor to work with the wonderful Catherine Martin once again,” said Blahnik. “She is a visionary of the costume world and so beautifully brings motion picture to life through her divine creative imagination and originality. I am constantly inspired by cultural movements and music and with Elvis as the muse, these styles were a joy to create! The `50s in general is an era that I am so often drawn to, particularly in my menswear designs, with some of my past and more recent collections inspiring the pieces for the film. I am incredibly grateful to Catherine for including my work in this already iconic film. It has been marvelous, a true privilege.”

Manolo Blahnik designs featured in the film are TUPELO, a black-and-white lace-up inspired by ‘50s menswear, VICTOR, a sleek white calf leather boot, and GRACELAND, a classic toggle desert boot in cappuccino-coloured suede.

“Manolo Blahnik’s brilliance and extraordinary craft is something I have admired for many years,” said Martin. “To work with him and create something unique yet historically truthful was an incredible privilege. To have at one’s disposal such extraordinary Italian ateliers was a luxury, resulting in beautiful, gorgeously crafted shoes. Coincidentally, Manolo Blahnik’s signature spectator lace ups are strikingly similar to the shoes Elvis habitually wore in the mid`50s. The iconic designer’s love of this style serendipitously reflected Elvis’s aesthetic in the 1950s.”

Baz Luhrmann’s ELVIS Only in Theaters June 24.

PRADA LINEA ROSSA FALL/WINTER 2021 SKI CAMPAIGN

Engineered for high-performance sports, geared for metropolitan life – since 1997, Prada Linea Rossa has been inspired by and designed for champions. That encompasses the technicality of each garment, created to excel in all situations and under all conditions, but also the very ideology of Linea Rossa – of not just reaching your goals, but exceeding them.

PRADA LINEA ROSSA FALL/WINTER 2021 SKI CAMPAIGN

PRADA LINEA ROSSA FALL/WINTER 2021 SKI CAMPAIGN

To front the Linea Rossa Fall/Winter 2021 ski campaign, Prada turns to those who reflect this ongoing heritage of excellence – pioneers and champions, free-thinkers who push themselves beyond. For the second time, champion British-American freestyle skier, philanthropist and prominent LGBTQI+ figure Gus Kenworthy features in a Linea Rossa campaign. A figure of excellence across all fields, Kenworthy is as comfortable as an actor and rights activist as he is on the slopes – constantly striving to be the best.

For this ski campaign, Kenworthy is joined by another leading global figure in winter sports – the American snowboarder Julia Marino, gold-medal winner in the 2017 X Games. The first female boarder to win two medals at the same X Games in 17 years, Marino took 15 podium wins across the 2017-18 season.

She has harnessed her renown and visibility to further causes close to her heart: on the women and youth empowerment front, she inspires young women to pursue their dreams, both on and off the slopes, opening up the traditionally male-dominated sport to a new generation of women. Both figures showcase the Fall/Winter 2021 Prada Linea Rossa ski collection – specifically calibrated for winter conditions, streamlined for speed, geared for life.

Captured in still images and a filmic short directed by Matt Pain, Kenworthy and Marino engage in a fierce battle across the slopes, a race between skier and snowboarder on their shared winter terrain. Their competition, however, harks back to the original root of that word – competere, ‘to strive for.’ Not a rivalry, but a sparring match, an urging of one another to push further and achieve. The ethos of champions, the attainment of excellence synonymous with Linea Rossa – a line to cross, to conqueror.

GUERLAIN - Exceptional Creations - The Bee Bottle by Begum Khan 2021

GUERLAIN – Exceptional Creations 

The Bee Bottle by Begum Khan 2021

This exceptional Guerlain perfume is priced at 10,000 euros

01 HEADING EAST

With the Bee Bottle, the young designer has cast a bridge between past and future; between East and West. An artistic encounter between two worlds. For Guerlain, Begüm Khan has created a work of art all in gold-plated bronze and encrusted with pavé gemstones; an encounter between East and West, as told by the designer:

“Since embarking on this collaboration, I have been constantly amazed by the synergies between myself, a young Turkish designer, and the centuries-old house of Guerlain.”

02 THE WORLD OF BEGÜM KHAN

Jewellery designer Begüm Kiroglu grew up in a family of Ottoman art collectors. Inspired by the East and by the opulence of Istanbul, she decided to create jewellery brand in 2012. With an abundantly whimsical imagination, she designs works of art that reinterpret nature, flora and fauna, forming a rich compendium of beasts and floral symbols.

03 THE BEE, SOURCE OF INSPIRATION

The theme of the bee is very dear to Guerlain, as a source of inspiration, a decorative motif and the hallmark of an ecological commitment. . A source of inspiration for Begüm Khan: ‘Bees have always intrigued me: they are a common sight, buzzing all around us, and yet their beauty is often overlooked. They are fragile yet strong, and there is something inspiring in this dichotomy. Bees are also synonymous with Guerlain, so they were a natural choice for our collaboration.” says the artist.

04METAMORPHOSIS OF THE BEE BOTTLE

Begüm Khan chose to create a jewel comprising elements that resonate with the West and the world of Guerlain. In the fantastical design, an imperial bee, the Guerlain symbol, escapes from its fanciful and luxurious universe to land for a fleeting moment on the bottle, fringed by four majestic flowers. Each piece is handmade by Turkish craftsmen in a historic workshop near the Grand Bazaar in Istanbul, through a labour of love that imbues every bottle with its own personality and soul.

05 AN EXCEPTIONAL SAVOIR-FAIRE

Crafted in Istanbul workshop, the bronze-set decorative adornment is plated with 24-karat gold and paved with approximately 6,500 coloured gems. One by one, each stone is added by hand. Once placed on the bottle, the precious motif blots out the cartouche. This inimitable, meticulous feat of metalwork takes over fifty hours to complete.

06 LE SONGE DE LA REINE

The exclusives fragrance that comes with the creation, Le Songe de la Reine, brings us before the gateway into the East. This Eau de Parfum opens on a fresh and vibrant mix of mandarin and bergamot, revealing the freshness and the delight of fig notes in its heart, set upon a woody base of sandalwood and cedar notes. “This is a fragrance full of contrasts, wherein the woody notes, in their strength and sensuality, are confronted with the vegetal vitality of fig sap.” says Thierry Wasser, Guerlain House Perfumer.
