CELINE returns with its Hiver 2026 campaign, offering a closer look at Michael Rider’s latest collection following its Paris presentation earlier this year. Photographed by Zoë Ghertner and accompanied by a film by Massimiliano Bomba, the campaign continues to define Rider’s evolving vision for the French house.
Ghertner, who has previously photographed seasonal projects for CELINE, once again focuses on the clothes. First presented at the Institut de France on March 7, Hiver 2026 marked Rider’s third runway collection for the brand and further developed his approach to building a wardrobe made up of pieces designed to work together.

This season, Rider sharpens the silhouette with close-fitting tailoring, slim coats and suits, cropped kick-flare trousers, reworked French peacoats, leather jackets, and knitwear. Layering remains central, with sweaters tied over jackets, stacked shirt collars, oversized knotted scarves and unexpected headpieces adding character to the collection’s controlled proportions.
The campaign also reinforces Rider’s shift away from oversized silhouettes in favour of precise tailoring and recognizable wardrobe staples shaped through fit and proportion. It is another clear step forward for his vision at CELINE, with Ghertner’s imagery carrying the collection into its next visual chapter.
Collection available in-store and on celine.com August 27.
