Seductive and sensual, the Donna Karan FW 2013 campaign looks like movie stills from a romance flick filled with many dramatic scenes set in the bedroom.
Photographer Mikael Jansson captures Catherine McNeil and Andres Velencoso as they flirt with one another in a dimly-lit studio with windows looking out at the NYC skyline. Stylist Karl Temper dresses the duo in dark pieces; McNeil wears slinky dresses embellished with fur finished off with lace thigh highs. Donna Karan says these images "capture the soul and spirit" of the brand, according to Fashion Copious.
Mysterious yet warm and sexy, the Donna Karan FW 2013 campaign defines the luxury label's aesthetic and sticks to Karan's belief that you must "stay true to your brand and yet always take it to the next step."
