Kering and Les Rencontres de la photographie, Arles are honored to present the 2025 Women In Motion Award for Photography to American photographer Nan Goldin. A pioneering artist, Goldin has redefined the representation of women in photography, challenging conventions and shedding light on gender, identity, and social realities. Through her lens, she has given visibility to women and marginalized communities, amplifying their voices in ways that continue to shape contemporary photography. "This award is such a great honor. I’m proud to be associated with such great women photographers who I admire and respect. I have a long history with Arles, particularly in the 80’s which had a profound effect on me and my work early in my career. I’ve returned to Arles several times since then and I’m thrilled to be back." - Nan Goldin. To mark this occasion, her work 'Stendhal Syndrom' will be on display at the Église Saint-Blaise in Arles, with the support of Women In Motion. #WomenInMotion

Kering unveils Boucheron’ Serpent Bohème Vintage collection. A new chapter unfolds in our iconic Serpent Bohème story. It all started in 1968, when a drop-shaped design was born - encapsulating all of Boucheron's exceptional savoir-faire. Today, we're thrilled to expand this iconic collection with Serpent Bohème Vintage — a bold new line that pays homage to our rich archives while embracing contemporary vision. When Creative Director Claire Choisne discovered a striking 1974 sautoir necklace with its hefty pendant and distinctive chain links in our archives, inspiration struck. The revival features 15 bold designs that celebrate the collection's heritage through a play of new colors, new shapes and new ways of wearing the design. Serpent Bohème Vintage captures the flamboyant spirit of the 1970s while offering a decisively contemporary expression of jewelry — bold pieces of style that remain timeless enough to be passed through generations. #Boucheron #SerpentBohème

Kering unveils details from BALENCIAGA’s Winter 25 collection. This collection is based on a study of standard dress codes, and what it takes to twist standard fits and garments into a fashion context, featuring select pieces in faux fur. Focused on a sociological observation of the wardrobe underpinned by dressmaking principles and a pursuit of the golden ratio—an exercise in rigour, a challenge, a defining and a rethinking of standards. #Balenciaga
