EBAY / CYNTHIA ERIVO / VOGUE WORLD HOLLYWOOD
Vogue World: Hollywood was a theatrical tribute to the enduring romance between fashion and film. Staged on the legendary Paramount lot, the event honored the visionary costume designers who shaped cinema’s most memorable characters while spotlighting contemporary fashion’s leading voices.
As Vogue’s official pre-loved partner, we celebrated this dialogue between past and present through a campaign devoted to vintage fashion and the artistry of costume design. At its center was a cinematic short starring Cynthia Erivo, who transforms into three iconic film characters, each look sourced entirely from eBay. The film, a surreal homage to Hollywood glamour and creative reinvention, premiered during the Vogue World livestream, capturing the timeless allure of pre-loved fashion on a global stage.
