ROSALÍA FOR ACNE STUDIOS

By Roisin Breen

Acne Studios has introduced its Fall/Winter 2022 campaign, fronted by the trailblazing Spanish singer and songwriter Rosalía. Photographed by the Dutch artist Paul Kooiker, the campaign reimagines the musical icon as a historical muse in a series of intimate still and moving images. Wearing key pieces from the fall/winter runway collection, each look is infused with Rosalía’s own uncompromising style.

Rosalía,who is currently touring the world with her third studio album ‘Motomami’, featuring her chart-topping hit ‘Despechà’, shot the campaign in her hometown Barcelona. “When I pose for a photographer, I always try to be myself but also try to channel an energy. What appealed to me the most about working with Paul [Kooiker] was that he has an atemporal style, his pictures could have been taken when photography was invented. But, at the same time, he transmits a freshness of the moment. His pictures are badass,” says Rosalía.

The campaign showcases the experimental materiality that anchors Acne Studios, and which manifests in the fall collection in the manipulation and repurposing of denim, jersey and leather. The singer’s favourite pieces were the jersey boots and the sunglasses. “I love how bold but elegant everything is. To me, Acne Studios is a brand that takes care with the fabrics, the colors, the textures – everything is so well thought through, impeccable and fresh,” she says.

For Paul Kooiker, Rosalía offered an opportunity to experiment with different visual worlds, without compromising her own intrinsically modern aesthetic. “The campaign tried to capture Rosalía in a way she is rarely seen. While shooting thevideos I discovered that her movements were so strong and con dent that we continued this way of working for the stills. The approach was to shoot the contemporary collection in a timeless and historical atmosphere,” says Kooiker.

The campaign launched worldwide on 6 October 2022 with a series of exclusive activations across the globe from, New York, Barcelona, Los Angeles, Mexico City, London and Paris. The FW22 collection is available in Acne Studios stores worldwide and online at acnestudios.com
