The event, which took place at Milan Fashion Week, invited guests on an immersive journey from past to present, setting the stage for a bold new era.

More than 500 guests, including 110 notable talents, were in attendance to celebrate the next chapter of MCM.

First, they voyaged through The Heritage Room, drenched in the brand’s signature Cognac Visetos print. This grand room catapulted guests throughout the years, commemorating MCM’s storied history from 1976 to the present day. The space displayed suitcases and one-of-a-kind archival pieces, showcasing its roots in travel and intersections with pop culture.

Dubbed “a captivating celebration of ingenuity and teamwork”, the legendary collaborations on display, including Puma, Bape and Crocs, transcend genres and categories, nodding to the pioneering spirit of the House.

Honouring its roots and looking forward to the future, SS24 sees the classic Visetos pattern deconstructed to its iconic Laurel and Diamond motifs, introducing a new logo for the brand.
