The Distinct line is a campaign that pays homage to Rimowa’s past use of leather, one that precedes its introduction of aluminium.
To celebrate the new launch, the German maison took its refreshed products to Musée Soulages, a modern art museum in France. There, it was photographed amongst the works of acclaimed printmaker and sculptor Pierre Soulages, a historic feat for Rimowa, as the first brand to put forth such a collaboration. The campaign also honours the abstract artist’s compositions and his craftsmanship—an intrinsic value shared by the maison.
