Innovations in Craft & Design
Celine introduced functional yet luxurious sport‑inspired ready‑to‑wear in the 1960s. Its leather goods—especially under Philo—were built on tonal minimalism, structured silhouettes, and quiet branding. Under Slimane, the brand expanded into haute parfumerie, couture and menswear. Rider’s debut collection honors both Philo and Slimane, adding playful uses of the Triomphe logo and accessible accessories.
Vogue India: “Celine injects quiet strength into timeless silhouettes.”
