French jewelry house MESSIKA unveiled its 2023 campaign featuring reality star Kendall Jenner and supermodel, actor, and dancer Alton Mason lensed in the desert of Palm Springs by fashion photographer Chris Colls. In charge of styling was Helena Tejedor, with beauty from hair stylist Shay Ashual, and makeup artist Yadim. The campaign pays tribute to American cinema. The desert’s matte, mineral and raw landscape contrasts perfectly with the sparkle of the latex, gold and diamonds. The classic American cars bring a retro-chic touch to the campaign.
This new collaboration is deemed as a natural extension with Messika. I love old American cars, so it was wonderful to be able to soak up that vintage and mythic aura that was emitted. Iconic jewelry, unique cars in a spectacular American setting, what could be more inspiring! – Kendall Jenner
Kendall has a very powerful natural presence in front of the lens. With one look, she is there. She embodies values that resonate perfectly with us: she is an accomplished and assertive woman, always right on trend. Here lies the strength of Messika, a Maison perfectly in tune with the times. – Valérie Messika, Founder and Artistic Director of Messika
