Prepare to be captivated by the allure of German luxury brand AIGNER's latest offering, "The 5th Element," a collection of leather accessories that defines sophistication for Fall/Winter 2023. Renowned art photographer Elizaveta Porodina's lens paints a striking portrait of sinuous shapes, luxurious materials, and solid, architectural silhouettes, all adorned with precious hardware.
Visual Poetry by Elizaveta Porodina
Elizaveta Porodina, the celebrated art photographer, transports us to otherworldly realms with her visually poetic images. Guided by emotion and an impeccable sense of aesthetics, Porodina employs light and color compositions that set the stage for "The 5th Element." In a series of brilliant shots, model and muse Vivien Solari takes center stage, gracefully posing in monochrome, abstract spaces. Her presence exudes a formidable power, perfectly complementing the expressive and varied shades that pay homage to the four primary elements – earth, water, air, and fire.
Porodina and Solari unite to set the stage for this enigmatic collection that transcends boundaries.
The Fifth Element: Subtle and Intangible
In philosophy, the four elements – fire, water, earth, and air – are considered the origins of all earthly life. But it's the lesser-known fifth element, subtle and intangible in nature, that connects everything together. This elusive element serves as the wellspring of inspiration for the Fall/Winter 2023 Collection.
A Blend of Past and Present
Drawing inspiration from the AIGNER archives, the collection seamlessly combines classic materials such as jacquard fabric, patchwork leather, and bouclé with rich, wintry shades. This fusion pays homage to AIGNER's heritage while breathing new life into the brand.
CYBILL SPECIAL
This season's special, the CYBILL PATCHWORK, showcases diamond-shaped patches of suede, grain leather, and crocodile-look leather in Stardust Rose, Cayenne Orange, and Element Orange.
