Last week on October 11 at The House of Genius in New York, Remo Ruffini Chairman and CEO of Moncler, debuted the 1Moncler Pierpaolo Piccioli collection with a private cocktail reception hosted in partnership with Barneys New York. Interpreting the Moncler DNA, Valentino’s Creative Director Pierpaolo Piccoli reimagined its shape, now unveiled in a long, A-line silhouette with a nod to both futuristic, graphic shapes and a sense of couture. Stripping the house’s iconic duvet, the designer worked with down-filled nylon, and a concept of his own.
There, guests like Chloe Wise, Colby Jordan Mugrabi, Harley Viera-Newton, Nicky Hilton Rothschild, Simone Rocha, and Tina Craig gathered to welcome the unique new pieces for the house. Following the cocktail event, a seated dinner for special attendees culminated in several of them wearing the new pieces, and enjoying the continuation of the house’s Genius Manifesto.
