Here at home, Oroton launches their Autumn Winter 2022 campaign, while Luke Hepworth teams up with Montblanc to auction products for the Sydney Children’s Hospital upon conclusion of his Ends of the Earth expedition. Below, our favourite fashion moments from the week.
Hublot X Oncore Dinner
Last Friday night, Hublot welcomed its friend of the brand and world renowned three Michelin star chef, Clare Smyth, at Smyth's recently opened restaurant, Oncore by Clare Smyth, located on level 26 of Sydney’s prestigious destination, Crown Sydney. Joined by guests and friends of Hublot, Smyth's innovative menu showcased an array of the chef's iconic dishes plated with a delicate balance and harmony of flavours - such as Kingfish served with sea vegetable nage, radish and perilla as well as an outstanding Shiro Kin wagyu beef served with Sydney rock oysters. It was a night to remember.
Valentino for Valentine's Day
Maison Valentino taps renowned INTO1 boy group to celebrate love on Valentine’s Day, with an exclusive campaign featuring a series of mini clips starring the eleven members of the group:
Liu Yu, Santa, Rikimaru, Mika, Nine, Lin Mo, Bo Yuan, Zhang Jiayuan, Patrick, Zhou Keyu and Liu Zhang. The VALENTINO INTO1 - FOR YOUR LOVED1 campaign, perfectly embodies the values of romance and inclusivity, as well as individuality.
The Valentino Garavani Locò bag plays as central protagonist of the campaign: Locò is synonymous with locomotive, a romantic reference to the design of the model and the idea of urban movement. But Locò is also Latin for madness, pronounced in the French style and celebrated by Italian hedonism.
Oroton Autumn Winter 2022 campaign
Oroton has launched its Autumn Winter 2022 Collection, Happy Camper, marking a new sense of energy and freedom, and a nod to the restorative power of the great outdoors. With references to tech and clean-lined sporing silhouettes, the collection conveys a certain east that’s relaxed yet pulled together. The collection combines nostalgic detailing, botanical themes and artful craftsmanship through streamlined shapes and refined accessories. Tailored suits, picnic check trousers and matching overshirts in fine Italian cottons, smart shirtdresses, oversized vests and a standout glossy trench.
Luke Hepworth teams up with Montblanc
Luke Hepworth is the owner of Hepworth Industrial Wear and a well-respected adventurer, and is partnering with Montblanc to auction products for the Sydney Children’s Hospital upon conclusion of his Ends of the Earth expedition. These products will be taken to the North and South Poles and the highest mountains on the 7 continents, a feat that only 26 people in the World have achieved.
Moncler Genius + Dingyun Zhang
Born in China, Central Saint Martins’ MA graduate DingYun Zhang launched his eponymous label in February 2021, grabbing the attention of the fashion community with his futuristic collection showcasing gigantic volumes and gargantuan puffers. Now, Zhang has teamed up with Moncler Genius to offer a collection that merges Zhang’s futuristic aesthetic with Moncler’s unique craft, featuring padding obtained through thermo-glued irregular quilting.
