During the Cannes Film Festival, the stars dressed in Celine by Hedi Slimane followed one another by the dozen on the steps of the Palace or at dinner parties. Suzanne and Vincent Lindon, Anaïs Demoustier, Lily Donaldson… To name but a few. But, on the Instagram account of the brand of the LVMH group, another star made the hearts of fans beat faster: Elvis, Hedi Slimane’s young goldendoodle who posed with an object created by his master on the occasion of the launch of the line of brand new accessories for dogs and cats from the label.
That is a dozen products ranging from leashes to collars in smooth or studded leather, from double-bowl bowls to logo toys, from travel bags stamped DOG to small “bags” in Triomphe coated canvas and beige calfskin. which noticeably improves any ride with its poop pick-up.
Artistic director who worked for Dior Homme and Saint Laurent, before joining Celine in 2018, Hedi Slimane is also a photographer, and in particular a distinguished portraitist of musicians and actors including Lou Reed, Keith Richards, Robert Pattinson, Courtney Love, Gus Dapperton…
He has also established himself as an excellent documentary filmmaker of the French, English and American rock or pop scene, shooting the artists, but also the room and its excited audience. That Elvis comes to interfere in this gallery of portraits, even in the arms of the brand ambassador, Lisa, of the Korean group of K-pop Blackpink, does not lack humor or dog.
