Valentino collaborated to create looks for Jacob Elordi, who plays the legendary Elvis Presley in Sofia Coppola’s “Priscilla“.
Each piece was designed by Pierpaolo Piccioli and is completely custom-made. Inside each garment, a hand-stitched “Valentino for Jacob Elordi” label underscores the bespoke nature of the garment.
The clothing selection reflects Elvis’s demand for perfectly coordinated outfits, even when relaxing at home. The collection includes cable-knit sweaters and cardigans with contrasting stripes imagined in cashmere, while the elegant polos are made of extra-fine wool.
Each piece is available in a range of colors from light ivory to camel and navy, reflecting the era. The curated collection also includes a line of suits that pay homage to specific period details inspired by Elvis‘ own life. The mohair suits with flap pockets, for example, come in a variety of colors including blue and burgundy, as well as a mix of rich creams and deep tones.
