It is said that a good way to justify the cost of a particularly expensive fashion purchase is to calculate its cost per wear. When it comes to these Celine headphones – a collaboration with Master & Dynamic – this makes for a particularly satisfying equation. After all, what accessory is worn more than a pair of headphones?
First revealed as part of Hedi Slimane’s S/S 2024 womenswear collection for Celine – titled ‘La Collection de la Bibliothèque Nationale’ and presented via short film – the headphones feature the house’s distinctive branding, alongside the ‘Triomphe’ monogram (its looping form originally inspired by the railings of Paris’ Champs-Élysées). Models wore the wireless style slung around their necks, while an extended version of LCD Soundsystem’s ‘Too Much Love’ provided the film’s soundtrack.
