The showstopping Balenciaga campaign shot by the legendary Steven Meisel with styling by Marie-Amélie Sauvé actually finds inspiration in personal photos of Patti Smith published in her 2010 memoir Just Kids. Featuring relatively unknown models these effective ads also raise the question of the need for casting famed model names.
Would these be any different if we had for example Freja, Anja and Saskia in them?
this is one of those making you stop when you go through a magazine.
one of the best spring summer collection hands down balenciaga
