Celine’s summer 2024 campaign, “Delusional Daydream,” contrasts the stark backdrop of Palm Springs, California, with the sleek confines of a studio. Photographed by Hedi Slimane, Celine’s creative, artistic, and image director, the advertisement resonates with his signature cool.
Celine Summer 2024 Campaign
Slimane’s images present models Idries and Fisher as the epitome of youthful rebellion. Hairstylist Esther Langham taps into the spirit of the seventies hairstyles, perfecting Idries’ magnificent afro and Fisher’s retro shag haircut, adding layers of nostalgia to the season.
The campaign artfully combines a retro skater aesthetic with contemporary style. Fisher navigates the sun-drenched streets and desert landscapes in distressed, flared denim, embodying a carefree essence.
In stark contrast, Idries brings a polished edge to the studio, dressed in sleek leather and detailed shirts. This juxtaposition highlights the summer collection’s versatility, seamlessly blending the wild, untamed outdoors with the refined, minimalist aesthetic of an indoor setting.
Celine’s looks are further elevated by striking accessories, including statement necklaces and oversized aviator sunglasses, adding an edge to the nostalgic silhouettes.
Slimane’s vision for Celine’s summer 2024 collection is a nod to the past and a statement for the present. The models’ carefree attitudes and the setting create a compelling narrative of youthful freedom and style at the intersection of classic cool and contemporary fashion.
