The Fall/Winter 2020-2021 collection embodies an evolution of the Celine wardrobe envisioned by Artistic Director Hedi Slimane.

This is a unisex collection, with each piece – including the bags – designed to be worn by men as well as women. As the models walked the runway, each look echoed the next in a play of fabrics: smooth velvet on jackets, pants and dresses, silk on androgynous blouses, shaping a new vision of romanticism.

Some of the accessories were created in collaboration with Fondation César and reinterpreted the sculptor’s iconic compressions. Crafted from silver and vermeil, these limited-edition jewelry pieces are in equal measure pendants and works of art.

The new Fall Winter 2020 collection also spotlighted the new Les Cristaux Celine jewelry line, with bracelets, rings and pendants fashioned from nine precious stones, including rock crystal, smoky quartz and star mica, chosen by Hedi Slimane for their beauty and symbolism.

The Pomellato For Women initiative was first developed in 2017 to highlight the importance of female leadership and a more authentic idea of natural beauty.

The luxury Italian brand was founded by Pino Rabolini in 1967 under the concept of prêt-à-porter jewelry for the liberated woman during an important era for women’s emancipation. Pomellato recognized that the independent woman would need a more functional jewel to wear from workday to evening, and the ready-to-wear jewelry concept was born. Since, Pomellato has been known as the brand that designs for women, promoting the unity, strength and equality of womankind.

“In today’s tumultuous social climate, we have a responsibility to do what we can. As head of a luxury brand company designed for women, of course Pomellato will use its forum to call for change and promote inclusivity. We stand in defiance to gender inequality, bigotry, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, to any fear of ‘the other.’ We raise our voices loud and our spirits high. We are hopeful for a healthier, more unified, more inclusive future,” said Pomellato’s Sabina Belli.
