#CNILux Day 1: Giambattista Valli: We Must Give Customers Emotion

Since launching his namesake label in 2005, Giambattista Valli’s beautifully constructed, feminine designs have become synonymous with the red carpet. His way with tulle knows no bounds. Each year the Roman designer creates four Giambattista Valli ready-to-wear collections, four for his diffusion line Giamba, and two for couture. He remained staunchly independent until the summer of 2017, when he allowed Artémis, the holding company of the Pinault family, to acquire a minority stake in the maison for an undisclosed sum. Previously he had self-financed his business, in part by consulting for Max Mara Atelier and directing Moncler Gamme Rouge, so that he could write his own story.

Almost a year since the acquisition, he told Suzy Menkes at the the Condé Nast International Luxury Conference that the Pinault family has helped him to become “an actor in my own story and not dub other movies”.

Giambattista Valli is about storytelling, the couturier explained of his creative process. “There are always chapters of a story that I have in my mind that are unfinished and continue every season. Giambattista Valli is a love story of a woman that is everyone.”

Each collection, for him, is about touching the emotion of these real women: “I don’t want to miss out on a potential love story, the potential harmony of a woman and a dress.” He believes the luxury industry is missing this poetry. “It’s important for creatives to give customers emotion, to give customers my vision of Parisian culture … We have been talking today about technology, but nourishment of creativity is important.”

The fourth annual Condé Nast International Luxury Conference is in Lisbon, on the 18th and 19th April. For more information, visit www.cniluxury.com/2018

#CNILux Day 1: Hilary Swank’s Vision of Active Luxury

Alice Newbold, Vogue Daily Editor, reporting live from the CNI Luxury Conference in Lisbon

When two-time Oscar-winning actress and producer Hilary Swank couldn’t find the clothing that met her lifestyle needs (red-eye flights, red carpets, back-to-back meetings), she designed it herself. After years of perfecting the concept – a collection of supportive, luxury leisure wear for women, by women – Mission Statement was born in the autumn of 2016.

At the Condé Nast International Luxury Conference, she told Suzy Menkes how she balances the technological advances in sportswear with luxurious comfort to give her business an edge in the ever-competitive active wear industry.

“I felt like myself and every modern-day woman, who does everything, didn’t have clothes that supported her and performed with her,” she explained. “Athleisure has gone as far as it can and it doesn’t feel ethical…. Customers can sense authenticity; it’s a universal language.”

It has taken the grit she shows on screen as an actor to get Mission Statement off the ground, but the language of an actor and a designer, she said, are surprisingly similar. “With TV you start with an idea, find someone to write a script and then get artisans to produce it – that analogy works with fashion.”

Swank has been selling her functional pieces for a year, and is still immersed in every single detail of her passion project: “I’m acting CEO and co-designer. I’ve been to every single factory (five in Italy and two in Portugal). I don’t have weekends, I have another day job, but I love working hard and collaborating with people who encourage me to think bigger.”

Her vision of a new woman is what motivates her, and it’s her own personal mission to break stereotypes: “You don’t have to compromise luxury and compromise performance.” It’s her goal to “make women feel confident to achieve their own mission statement”.

Her parting words, “We’re so infant!”, don’t sound like most other brands. “Infant”, to Swank, means launching shoes next summer, swimwear and accessories after that, and then menswear. “It needs to happen sooner rather than later,” she said of the Instagram DMs she receives from male fans asking her to branch out. But with her can-do charisma, there can be no doubt that men will soon be wearing Mission Statement.
