I saw a preview but had no idea it was for a mainline campaign!

I'm in love with the direction, it's just refreshing seeing Paris Hilton in something as unconventional as parisian fashion (ironically).

And regardless of publicity stunts this just all feels well executed and well timed especially since it seems like Paris Hilton is making a comeback (along with anything early 00's in general).

I love it. It's so 2000s, fun and fabulous. And Bruno is finally breaking from his Loewe aesthetic. This is more effective Valentino for sure.

Absolutely love this.
Gorg!

Ugh, ok. This is absolutely stunning. All her shots look like they were taken mid-pose and actually, that's what makes the campaign so stunning. The most natural I've seen her (and I've seen A LOT of her). Nothing worse than Paris trying to look hot/cute.

I'm guessing Lanvin is starting to see a profit hence the decision to invest in top photographers? Or maybe just repositioning themselves? Strangely enough, I think this could work if they keep it up. Just visually, I'd now rank the brand next to Bottega, Givenchy and all the other 'cool' brands. Ultimately it's a win for Lanvin because it means they're in 'good' company. Unlike Ferragamo, for instance.

Paris is definitely seeing a fashion resurgence. First Valentino, now Lanvin. Gigi, Bella, Paris, Lisa Rinna is somewhere seething and asking when it will be her daughters turn.

Pretty darn flawless actually.

How fun and completely unexpected! What a pleasant surprise, because I genuinely cannot remember the last Lanvin campaign which made an impression on me (perhaps the one with Kristen McMenamy by Steven Meisel). Paris looks fantastic here, loving the Michelle Pfeiffer/Scarface hair!

This is as good as her iconic VP cover. It would be fabulous if she goes along with that HF image just for 6 months. That has always been my frustration with her..

Fabulous and clever campaign. And judging by the video for their FW collection, they are playing the early 00´s game to the max!

Loves it! Pretty stunning. This brings me back to the times when it’s okay to be unabashedly fabulous, no pretensions.

 

[DK92]

Love it!

I really love these shots of her too. She looks gorgeous and it's fantastic that she no longer feels she has to put on the persona she had way back then. It seems like she's finally happy in her own skin so glad for her.

The Michelle Pfeiffer Scarface hairdo suits her! Pleasantly surprised by this campaign. Like Benn98 pointed out, I really enjoy how these images seem to be taken between poses and thus look less LA.

....Lisa Rinna is somewhere seething and asking when it will be her daughters turn.

Don't forget Sylvester Stallone. Yeah, I know. Random. LOL.
But he even chaperoned his daughter to casting, shows you how much he wants her to be a model. Probably thinking casting directors will be blinded by his (faded) star power.

Was not expecting this when I read the title lol but this is absolutely gorgeous! Love Paris in this campaign.

Cancel culture stays being strangely selective.

these portraits of her are GREAT and i love their reference point of old socialites 'swans' etc. the hair + styling makes it work... fun

 

[thiago:)]

Sooo good! Extremely simple, fabulous and effective.

Great campaign. Very simple and effective use of Miss Hilton.

Fabulous styling.
