Presenting Autumn / Winter 2023

Autumn / Winter 2023’s Fashion Month saw new collections from our clients Ferrari, Delvaux, and Zimmermann, each setting out their direction for the coming season.

Please see below the latest from each:

Ferrari

The Autumn/Winter 2023 collection was Rocco Iannone‘s fourth as Ferrari’s Creative Director, and its inspiration starts from the answer to one central question: What is beauty for Ferrari?
“Beauty is the pleasure that derives from speed, captured in its initial burst, in its full symbolic and design potential. It is the movement that stems from an idea, the aesthetic that captures the uniqueness of the transient, the sign of what is about to take place”.

From this, Rocco explored the specific meaning of beauty in the Ferrari universe: beauty in motion, reflected in a new vision of style that transitions, changes, accelerates.

Delvaux

Delvaux’s Autumn / Winter 2023 collection is dedicated to the idea of a journey driven by architecture, design and the timeless over the ephemeral.

Set in a magnificent 19th Century Parisian hôtel particulier, the seasonal presentation is envisioned as a progression through the House’s design continuum. The pathway connecting the past to the present, evoking the column-lined roads of ancient Rome, winds through each facet of Delvaux’s sensory world.

In celebration of the new collection, CEO Jean Marc Loubier and Delvaux hosted an intimate dinner enlisting Certified Belgian Warrant Holder, chef Jean-Michel Loriers, best known for his exquisite live-cooking buffets, to create a sublime menu for their guests.

Zimmermann

For the second season, Zimmermann returned to Paris Fashion Week at the Petit Palais.

Entitled ‘Luminosity’, Zimmermann’s beautiful Fall 2023 collection was inspired by the artwork of Rupert Bunny, an Australian artist from the turn of the last century. An Australian expatriate who made a home for himself in Paris, Bunny’s work featured literally through the use of his prints throughout the collection, but equally translated into the mood of the entire collection.

That mood is Languid. Luminous. Lush. A refreshing stroll through a wardrobe of romantic silhouettes, indulgent textures and lounge-worthy separates remixed with a strong dose of denim and boxy tailoring.

I was drawn to his use of colour and the romanticism of his work – the gentle and dreamy lifestyle scenes. There is a glow, warmth and optimism to his work that is really appealing to me.” – Nicky Zimmermann, Creative Director.

Actors Hannah Dodd and Freya Allan joined Nicky in Paris to celebrate the new collection, each wearing runway pieces from the Spring 23 collection.
