/
In an era dominated by technology and instant gratification, Montblanc invites you to embark on a journey to reconnect with the essence of literature through their captivating Library Spirit 2023 campaign.
It’s a wonderful campaign set against The London Library [IG], housing about a million books that have inspired writers and readers for over 180 years. This campaign series features supermodel Karen Elson and actor James Norton sharing their common interest in books, in images by Mariano Vivanco [IG].
Montblanc’s creative director Marco Tomasetta [IG] creatues a luxurious, intellectual ambiance for Montblanc’s evolving Soft Line collection. The multitentacled campaign is original, carefully-considered, beautifully- executed and serving a genuine purpose.
At the heart of the Library Spirit 2023 campaign lies the message that literature can unite us like nothing else. It fosters empathy, understanding, and compassion by allowing us to see the world through different lenses. Montblanc recognizes the importance of embracing diverse narratives and perspectives, unveiling a collection of limited-edition pens dedicated to literary giants whose words have shaped our understanding of humanity — the good, the bad, and the ugly.

/
Vogue reminds us that when Tom Ford returned to fashion world with his spring 2011 in his post-Kering world [then the Gucci Group], he was joined by his favorite models including Amber Valletta, Joan Smalls and Karen Elson.
Today the model trio and colleagues support their designer man [did I say ‘beloved designer man’] as he says goodbye to his eponymous label.
Photographer/director Steven Klein [IG] was there in the spring 2011 runway beginning [in fall 2010] and he is behind the lens today, a 12+ years. The curtain falls on a great run for the fashion visionary, in AOC’s opinion. No need to draw out the loss.

Lydia Slater conducts the interview of words spun around the spring 2022 fashion fest: Karen Elson on a brighter future.
"It felt like falling headfirst back into British life," the red-headed model activist says. "There was a house with a moat around it, built in the 1700s, there was a graveyard from the 1500s. Even the cold, the rain – give it to me! I’ve had more cups of tea this week than I ever have. And with the hair and the make-up and the beautiful location, there was a sort of wildness about it.”
