The campaign for Nicolas Ghesquière's cruise collection, which also features actresses Amiah Miller and Giulia Maenza, plays with contrasting time periods.
PARIS – Always fond of a time clash, Nicolas Ghesquière presented his ‘80s-inspired cruise 2027 collection amid the Gilded Age splendor of The Frick Collection in New York City.
The museum and its masterpieces also provide the backdrop for the accompanying campaign, which features Vuitton brand ambassadors Chase Infiniti and Alysa Liu, alongside actresses Amiah Miller and Giulia Maenza.
Photographed by Ethan James Green, the images show the women casually exploring the museum’s historic galleries.
Miller, dressed in a draped miniskirt in an eye-popping shade of cyan and touting a lilac cylindrical bag, poses in front of James McNeill Whistler’s full-length portrait of 19th-century society figure Frances Leyland, mirroring her stance.
Liu, sporting her signature “halo” hair, wears a pebble-grained caramel leather jacket with Art Deco details as she reclines on a velvet banquette, a Jacques-Louis David portrait barely visible in the background. Maenza’s looks range from a bright red cardigan paired with two-toned denim pants to a sleek black leather look.
“The cruise collections have always been about movement, emotion and the encounter between silhouettes and place. For the cruise 2027 campaign, I wanted to extend that dialogue through a tale of two cities – between Paris and New York, expressing legacy and modernity,” Ghesquière said in a statement.
“The campaign reflects the layered identities, contradictions, and cultural energy at the heart of the collection, where each look becomes part of a conversation between history, colorful expression and imagination,” he added.
