Rabanne

Feb 2025

For the Rabanne Spring 2025 campaign, creative director Julien Dossena masterfully leans into an intersection of industrial rigor and ethereal naturalism. Captured by photographer Alasdair McLellan, this high-fashion campaign utilizes natural light to heighten the tension between the brand's iconic metallic chainmail textures and raw, organic elements. The imagery is defined by a surreal color palette, where vibrant pink and magenta water features provide a dreamlike contrast to the sharp, architectural geometry of the featured luxury handbags and jewelry. With styling by Marie Amelie Sauve, the campaign adopts an editorial minimalist approach, allowing the intricate craftsmanship of the chainmail to take center stage against stark, tactile backdrops like weathered stone, sand dunes, and modern mirror-finish plinths. Models Mica Arganaraz and Kieran Celzo ground the collection with a calm, steady presence, their portraits emphasizing a raw human connection that cuts through the stylized landscape. Through a series of macro and wide-angle shots, the project elevates accessory design into a conceptual narrative, blending the utilitarian nature of the hardware with the atmospheric softness of twilight. By balancing technical precision with artistic spontaneity, the campaign reasserts the house of Rabanne as a leader in avant-garde luxury, showcasing a profound dialogue between manufactured permanence and the ever-shifting beauty of the natural world.
