Hedi Slimane

The creative director introduces halter necks, tight leather and metallic suiting for a generation hell-belt on breaking the sartorial binary.

For his third in a run of shows exploring “indieness”, Hedi Slimane joins the dots between the proto-punk of Suicide, the rock scene of the ’00s, and the new gen of Paris nightlife.

For AW22, the creative director took over ornate Parisian grounds to present the luxury house’s latest collection to a thumping club soundtrack.

Gus Dapperton has an enviable fashion sense, and a sound that reverberates in your ears with mellifluous effect. Little wonder Hedi Slimane chose to shoot him in Celine for his Portrait of a Performer series.

The creative director presented his new collection with a self-directed short film, providing fresh glamour with an edge against the backdrop of Nice’s gorgeous vistas.

After a feverishly dark AW21, Hedi Slimane welcomes the party as the world gradually begins to open up.
