With his sophomore collection for CELINE, Michael Rider turns to summer through a radiant new campaign photographed by Zoë Ghertner and starring a cast of talent: Agel Akol, Bakary Cisse, Bas Van Geertruy, Betsy Gaghan, Binx Walton, Cathy Simmons, George Anderson, Jesse Rinderknecht, and Valerie Margareta.
Basking in the bright light of summer, the Été collection features printed silk scarves, polo tops, high-waisted wool trousers, sartorial tailoring, gilded hardware, and sculptural silhouettes. Polished and preppy, the collection builds a modern seasonal wardrobe for the effortlessly chic. From day to evening, Rider’s approach carries through both campaign and collection. Retro where it counts and modern where it matters most, CELINE trades glamorous excess for a studied, modern ease. Additionally, the campaign is accompanied by a film directed by Massimiliano Bomba, extending the collection’s visual language into motion.
