A new era of high fashion is upon us as H&M and Rabanne join forces in a dazzling collaboration, bringing forth an electrifying vision of glamour. The campaign film, directed by the acclaimed Xavier Dolan, introduces the world to the fusion of energy, movement, and light that defines Rabanne’s H&M collection.
The creative mastermind behind this awe-inspiring collaboration, Julien Dossena, Rabanne’s creative director, shares, “For this collaboration, I wanted to do everything I’d never do and anything I had never done. I wanted to explore shapes that were new to me, a very geometrical, simplified (if not simplistic) décor, and of course pay tribute to Paco Rabanne’s original world and era through colors and material. I valued his artistic vision, his taste. The collection itself encapsulates that spirit, and gives us something more modern, more democratic to look at and wear.”
Xavier Dolan, the visionary director known for his exceptional storytelling, beautifully captures this exploration of a new frontier in fashion in a campaign film. The video is a tribute to the amalgamation of two fashion giants’ creativity and innovation.
