For the 2024 holiday season, Church’s presents a campaign that feels fresh and modern, blending British charm with a playful, irreverent edge. Creative direction by David James and the lens of Phil Poynter bring a cast of characters to life—family and friends creating mischief at the grand St. Giles House, ancestral seat of the 12th Earl of Shaftesbury. The setting might be regal, but the vibe is far from stuffy.
There’s dancing on tables, a vintage motorcycle pull-up, and enough leather and velvet to match any winter evening’s indulgence. Church’s iconic Whaley lace-ups, in all their patent leather glory, get their moment to shine—literally—as do the luxe velvet slippers for women. Tom Guinness’ styling marries formal heritage with a touch of irony, making these classic silhouettes feel perfectly suited for a modern, anything-goes holiday gathering.
Church’s continues to nod to English eccentricity, embracing a season of unexpected pairings and playful flourishes. There’s a slipper for opening gifts, a monkstrap for a dramatic entrance, and a Burwood brogue that brings the festive spirit to a smart lunch—because why not make every moment sartorially meaningful?
