Acne Studios has tapped Talia Chetrit for its ‘Musubi Bag’ campaign, capturing a group of male dancers in multiple positions that touch on themes of sexuality and intimacy. The images depict the male models in different intimate poses that put the ‘Musubi Bag’ front and center. In the campaign visuals, the bag's pink, black, gray, and white colorways contrast the models' skin tones and wrap around their limbs, highlighting the accessory's bold dyes and strappy construction.
The ‘Musubi Bag’ takes inspiration from traditional Japanese obi sashes and arrives in four sizes: maxi, midi, mini, and micro. Additional styles include the micro tote bag and shoulder bag versions that were first introduced for the Spring/Summer collection. The campaign visuals for the 'Musubi Bag' will be displayed on billboard across New York, Los Angeles, Miami, London, Milan, and Berlin.
