The Dsquared2 x Kiss 2025 collection campaign channels a raw, glam-rock aesthetic through a series of high-contrast, monochrome editorial portraits. Under the creative direction of designers Dan & Dean Caten, the work leans into a moody, tactile visual language that highlights the collaborative line’s heavy use of crystal studs, metallic finishes, and graphic iconography.
Photographer Alfonso Anton Cornelis captures the collection across both stark studio settings and gritty, sand-swept landscapes. The imagery focuses on the interplay of light and texture, utilizing hard-light studio techniques to define the sculptural qualities of the embellished biker jackets and rhinestone-studded apparel. Styling by Giorgio Andrea Branduardi emphasizes a contemporary, sensual edge, pairing distressed graphic tops with intricate crystal detailing and wet-look grooming.
Featuring model Jakob Jokerst alongside a cast of co-stars, the campaign utilizes minimalist backdrops and a low-key chiaroscuro approach to isolate the reflective surfaces of the garments. The result is a consistent, high-impact series that bridges the energy of rock-and-roll history with a refined designer fashion lens.
