When Balmain came out with their Spring 2016 Campaign photos this morning, I’m sure many people raised their eyebrows when they did not see a Jenner or a Hadid. Instead, Olivier Rousteing kindly reminded us of the supermodel pros in this business: Naomi Campbell, Cindy Crawford and Claudia Schiffer.
The iconic trio were shot in minimal lighting inside a New York City studio alongside the direction of Pascal Dangin. In response to his choice of the supermodels instead of the trendy models we constantly see on the runways today, Rousteing said, “When I was a schoolboy in Bordeaux, it was their editorials that first made clear to me the amazing transformative power of fashion…Looking at them now, I like to think that perhaps someday these shots might also form part of some future designer’s mood board.”
We can’t help but agree. So what do you think of the latest Spring 2016 campaign photo?
