Luxury brands have luxury marketing budgets to match, and so it’s not a shock they are able to hire top tier directors, actors, and other technical crew to execute expensive art projects/advertainments to promote their attire. But we have to give it up to Ermenegildo Zegna for who they’ve pulled together for the short film "A Rose Reborn."
Co-written and directed by Park Chan-Wook, starring Jack Huston, and featuring a score by Clint Mansell, the film follows a young, handsome CEO who journeys from London to Wyoming, Shanghai, and Milan, to find learn how to be part of a “new generation of leaders who are successful, charismatic, and respectful of people and the planet.” There’s a sci-fi tinge to the proceedings, and lots of exchanging of fancy clothes, on immaculate sets.
