ACAPULCO THE PACIFIC PEARL
Captivated by this iconic beach town, we produced the Icone Spring/Summer 21 CAMPAIGN. Under the sign of the fast years of Acapulco, where our icons have been dancing every summer for decades, while artists were immortalizing its ineffable beauty. Hope you will enjoy it as much as we did, we strongly recommend you to listen to our special playlist to get in the mood!
At the beginning of the 20th century, Acapulco remains one of the best kept treasure of the Pacific ocean. far from being a trendy touristic destination, Acapulco is described as a charming land, with its white sand beaches, its luxurious vegetation and its mansions overlooking the bay. It’s in the daybreak of the 50’s that the town will its apogee with the opening of great establishments where Hollywood people look forward to go.
El Mirador hotel and its La Perla bar ont the De La Quebrada coast, handled by the “The King of Swing” Teddy Stauffer. Thanks to his well-filled address book, this musician chased from the Nazi Germany, has arrived by chance to Acapulco with Errol Flynn, had everyone from Hollywood coming on his PERCHOIR. Elizabeth Taylor, Frank Sinatra et Sammy Davis Jr, among others, will find there a royal peace.
There’s also the Casablanca hotel, known for its crazy parties and its unlikely turtles races by the pool. By the way, Orson Welles will shoot “The Lady from Shanghai” with Rita Hayworth in 1947. From the 40s until the 80s, anybody who’s looking for fun and excitement goes to Acapulco.
Here, we live freely with our lovers and our excesses thanks to an “entre-soi” jalousement cultivé.
Brilliantly documented by the photographer Slim Aarons. The romantics come there for honeymoons to copy Jackie and John F. Kennedy, where the party people dance until the end of the night in clubs that became iconic.
