Deep Time

Francesca Amfitheatrof’s High Jewellery Collection for Louis Vuitton, Deep Time, debuted at the Odeon of Herodes Atticus, under the direction and choreography of Dimitris Papaioannou. In a unique twist, the performance utilized the stage as the seating area, reversing the traditional view and transforming the auditorium into the performance space and backdrop. The catwalk wound its way among the guests on stage. The performance commences with Renaud Capuçon initiating a solo while being elevated on stage. As the show progresses, the enchantment unfolds, underscored by Capuçon and three additional violinists positioned at a lower level in the center of the stage, delivering a captivating musical accompaniment. The show culminated with the "birth" of Aphrodite from an enormous Nautilus shell. As Aphrodite emerged, 25 male performers surrounded her, adorning her with shell pieces that reflected light in all directions. The stalls and all the grandstand equipment were custom-designed specifically for the show.
