Balenciaga S/S 2014

After an extended break I am back, and my first post of 2014 could not be better- fact. The Spring ad campaigns are in full circulation in all our favourite magazines around now, I had my favourites picked and then Balenciaga blew me away with their incredible campaign for Spring'14. Photographed  by Steven Klein and starring Daria Werbowy it truly is one of the best ad campaigns I have seen in quite a while- the photos are striking, the clothes are brought to life creating a strong, fearless attitude. This is most definitely the best ad campaign of the season.

Magnifique.

Picture Perfect: Céline F/W 2013 Ad Campaign

So, as pretty much all the ad campaigns for the F/W '13 Collections are gracing all our favourite magazines as of now I always love to see what direction fashion houses and the top photographers take each collection and bring it to life in the campaigns. Céline have taken a simplistic approach to their campaign for the past few seasons and I will say I haven't liked the campaigns as a whole, but I have liked one or two pictures from each one, which brings me to the reason behind this post. I absolutely LOVE this picture from Céline F/W '13 campaign, featuring model Daria Werbowy and photographed by Juergen Teller. What makes it so stunning for me is the mixture of textures, the beautiful colours in the tiles as a backdrop, those incredible boots (which were one of the best accessories to appear from the F/W '13 Collections but my only negative comment really is that Daria's makeup could have been a little more polished, instead of making her look like she has tired eyes- not good. Next season though I would love to see Céline take a new more interesting route with their ad campaign as it's well overdue.
