Jean Paul Gaultier, Versace, and Mirror Palais: how celebrities bring a fresh vibe to the new collections of these global brands.
Kylie Jenner and Jean Paul Gaultier
The brand introduced a new summer collection named “Flowers” on May 5th, featuring Kylie Jenner as its star. The brand’s relationship with the businesswoman and model has been a success for quite some time. The chic appearance of the celebrity at the Met Gala is one of its fruits.
Creative director Florence Tétier drew inspiration from Jean Paul Gaultier’s 2000s archives. Captured by photographer Elizaveta Porodina, Jenner shines in skin-tight dresses, bikinis, and tops with floral patterns in a promotional campaign. The model’s vibrant makeup and hairstyle complete the atmosphere, turning her into a glowing mermaid.
The collection comprises mesh tops, knitted marinières, conical corsets, lingerie lacing, body morphing dresses, and swimwear. “Did you buy your Flowers?” asks the designer.

Dua Lipa and Versace
Donatella Versace and Dua Lipa, a famous British singer and trendsetter, created a women’s summer collection called “La Vacanza”. It made its debut on May 23rd in Cannes, France. “You are now both Versace supermodel and Versace super-designer,” says the designer about her dear friend and colleague.
The campaign was shot in sunny Ibiza with Dua Lipa as its face. Inspired by the love for summer and holidays, the collection is, according to Donatella Versace, a true celebration of creativity and friendship.
“La Vacanza” includes tops, jackets, skirts, dresses, and bikinis with floral prints, polka dots, and butterflies: they appear in the clothing design and “live” on the accessories and shoes. The collection beautifully embodies summer and the perfect vacation through colour and glitter.

Emily Ratajkowski and Mirror Palais
The American model has long had her own successful swimwear brand called Inamorata. On May 26th, a new summer collection featuring Mirror Palais was presented.
Marcelo Gaia, the creator of Mirror Palais, shared via Instagram the importance of his connection to Brazil and his love for the culture of his second homeland. Inspired by the people in Brazil, he decided to create pieces that would capture the vibe and mood of the country. Emily Ratajkowski, of course, is the face of the collection and looks stunning in the campaign shots.
The collection consists of colourful Brazilian bikinis with bright red and a country’s flag patterns, along with T-shirts and shorts. Finally, the perfect swimwear for summer is found!
