KARL MBAPPÉ FOR THE HUBLOT ADVOCATE
Kylian Mbappé, captured by Ezra Petronio, is the subject of the latest Hublot advertisement. He aimed to portray the football player in a way that was both classic and modern, while also highlighting his brilliance and transparency.
“Capturing that spark that is unique to each one of us – whatever that may be” is what Petronio loves most about creating portraits. “And to evoke emotion in the viewer so that nothing can distract the gaze from the essence of the subject,” adds Petronio in further detail.
Mbappé discusses his collaboration with Petronio on the Hublot ad. Mbappé described the experience as an honor, saying, “It was an honor to pose for Ezra as he worked to capture the person I really am.” “I appreciate the beauty of timeless objects with soul and their simplicity.”
Ricardo Guadalupe, CEO of Hublot, says working with Kylian Mbappé is a dream come true. Guadalupe says, “Kylian is one of the brand’s ambassadors and is widely respected for his excellence on the pitch and his humility off it.” “Ezra is a perfectionist who draws inspiration from all facets of the creative arts. His distinctive style is a creative vision. We were happy to bring them together for this ad because their shared attitude embodies the Hublot ideology.
