Hedi Slimane in charge CELINE MEN The 2023 winter menswear show recently kicked off at the legendary LE PALACE (Paris Theater) in Paris. It continues to show off its signature rock fashion aesthetics. Every season is an opportunity for individuals to deeply explore and redefine the history of music culture. Capture important memories from fragments and inject them into artistic creation.
Officially, the place is gracious and special to Hedi Slimane. From the age of 16, he spent most of his youthful nights here. LE PALACE is a place of special significance. Its existence greatly enlivened the nightlife in Paris at that time, and once attracted Yves Saint Laurent and Grace Jones, Prince, Karl Lagerfeld, Andy Warhol, Serge Gainsbourg, Mick Jagger and Jerry Hall, etc. Celebrities indulged in masquerade balls and live shows, and it was one of the first gay clubs in Paris, which inspired Hedi to become a fashion designer.
The show music “Girl” comes from Suicide, an American rock band that flourished in the 1970s. The first album of the same name is a classic anthem of the CBGB punk era movement, and it is also the record collection of countless generations of music fans. Suicide consists of instrumentalist Martin Rev and visual artist and vocalist Alan Vega, whose unrivaled vocal chemistry yields a visionary production.
Today, these electronic and electronic rock music cultures that emerged in Paris, London, New York and other big cities in the 2000s are being discovered by the younger generation. Hedi Slimane delves into the trend and pays homage to legendary New York proto-punk band Suicide.
