BACKSTAGE
RICCI's
FACES
What do Nina Ricci women look like in 2022? What’s special about them? Their beauty? Maybe, but what else? On a walk replete with sounds and visuals, between the studio and the workshops, six figures embody the French fashion house’s new collection, inspired by its own expert skills. With remarkable sensitivity, every woman suggests a perspective on the basics rediscovered in the Nina Ricci wardrobe. They somehow manage to glide the spectator into this new era in a natural, simple demonstration of what really matters. Fierce moods, singular characters, oscillating between noisy and joyful, calm and silent. It’s all a paradox, with these women throwing everything off course. Just being isn’t enough for them. They are themselves, creative and invested. Their names are Zinnia, Bibi, Charlie. Who are they? What are they doing? Artists, singer, creative director, militants. These women have a personality, a history. They are the bright faces of Nina Ricci. There’s no doubt about it: they’re the ones to follow.
