The Leviโsยฎ brand, in collaboration with global icon Beyoncรฉ, today debuted โPool Hall,โ the second chapter of the REIIMAGINE campaign and a celebration of the Leviโsยฎ brandโs enduring legacy and Beyoncรฉโs transformative artistic vision. In the new film and accompanying imagery, Beyoncรฉ effortlessly showcases an iconic denim-on-denim look and its timeless versatility.
Building on the success of the first chapter โ โLaunderette,โ which inspired audiences by reimagining a classic 1985 advertisement โ โPool Hallโ reinterprets the iconic 1991 Leviโsยฎ ad of the same name. Leviโsยฎ teamed up with Grammy Award-winning director Melina Matsoukas for the latest chapter of the REIIMAGINE campaign, evolving this piece of Leviโsยฎ history while showcasing the timeless versatility of its garments.
The campaign was conceived in creative partnership with TBWA\Chiat\Day LA and produced by de la revoluฤion/PRETTYBIRD.
โPool Hallโ captures Beyoncรฉ defying expectations as she takes on a local shark, played by Timothy Olyphant, in a high-stakes game of pool. Celebrating Leviโsยฎ products as modern style staples that continue to evolve, the new chapter embraces bold interpretations and encourages wearers to make them their own. Chapter 2โs accompanying images highlight striking pieces, including the Ribcage Wide Leg jeans, the Braided Vest and the Spade Trench, styled with custom embellishments to reflect the spirit of individuality and reinvention central to the campaign.
โThere isnโt another wardrobe piece that evokes comfort, modern elegance, classic Americana attire, and nostalgia the way denim does,โ said Beyoncรฉ. โAnd when I think of all those things, I think of Leviโsยฎ.โ She continued, โFor the second chapter in our collaboration we had even more fun in reimagining the denim on denim narrative, through the lens of a woman, who can be sexy, bold and a fierce competitor, all at once. We wanted to celebrate the duality of grace and power.โ
โLeviโsยฎ has always built on its rich denim history, reinterpreting it in new cultural moments and proving that reinvention is at its core,โ said Kenny Mitchell, global chief marketing officer of the Leviโsยฎ brand at Levi Strauss & Co. โPool Hall honors our heritage while breaking new ground, giving fans a chance to personalize their Leviโsยฎ and express their unique style.โ
โPool Hallโ launches with a fully integrated global campaign, including television, digital, social media, out-of-home and brand activations. Additionally, the Leviโsยฎ brandโs social media will feature additional style content from global creators that encourages viewers to make their own style mark. Fans and friends of the brand will also be invited to participate in experiences that will serve as a playground for their own reimaginations.
The campaign continues the Leviโsยฎ tradition of working with the most celebrated creative talents of our time. Matsoukas collaborated with Emmy Award-winning cinematographer Marcell Rรฉv and acclaimed photographer Mason Poole to capture the visual essence of Pool Hall, building on the legacy of iconic Leviโsยฎ campaigns and photography.
