#VersaceJeansCouture SS22
by Gabriel Córdoba Acosta
A couple of months after the Hadid sisters, Gigi and Bella, starred alongside Maluma and the iconic Donatella in Versace’s Spring/Summer 22 campaign, we’ve been able to discover the new campaign for the brand’s young line we just mentioned, Versace Jeans Couture.
Following the clear aesthetic that characterizes it and reinterpreting the coming of age story, through a selection of images (full of joy, color, and spontaneity) taken by the promising Finnish photographer Osma Harvilahti and a film directed by the Parisian director Vincent Catel, we have discovered the brand’s novelties.
Named “Summer Daze”, this spot simultaneously transports us to the American–style suburbia and explores the contemporary coming-of-age experience, focusing on the universal and the more personal, as well as portraying the beauty of youth in all its forms and immersing us in the world of a group of friends over the course of a summer.
And as we said before, through these images and the film, the Versace Jeans Couture new pieces have been unveiled, both for women and men. Starting with the former, the women’s part presents romantic and sensual silhouettes with a contemporary touch that is reflected in several total looks with prints composed of jackets and skirts. And obviously, it’s not just these garments that makeup Versace’s Spring/Summer youth line, because what would the Italian brand be without its stunning dresses? No idea, but what we do know is that this year it has been reimagined with ruffles and lingerie details, as well as the art of pleats, which appear on sportswear, contrasting with chunky footwear.
Secondly and finally, the men’s collection maintains the influence of American culture with a sportier attitude. Key silhouettes are relaxed and influenced by streetwear. Plain-colored sportswear is revamped with graphic detailing. Tropical florals are juxtaposed with animals, channeling the irreverent attitude of Versace Jeans Couture. The youthful, carefree approach is further explored in the styling, seen in bags casually draped across the chest or chunky sandals with colorful socks.
Go and dive into the playful and colorful Versace Jeans Couture Spring/Summer 22
