Top models Karlie Kloss, Lexi Boling and Caroline Trentini don a wardrobe of opulent 90s fashions in Versace's latest campaign. The Fall/Winter 2015/2016 advert is lensed by legendary photographers Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott.
Working alongside art director Giovanni Bianco, Mert and Marcus shine a spotlight on designer Donatella Versace's opulent 90s fashions. Styling for this campaign is courtesy of Jacob Kjeldgaard who opts for a leading ensemble worn by Rihanna herself. From emerald thigh-high boot and fur coat combinations to structured dresses that are asymmetrically cut, this campaign celebrates the return of nostalgic fashion.
Borrowing from brother and label founder Gianni Versace's bold aesthetic, Donatella Versace's latest collection is nothing short of striking and is an homage to the colorful aesthetic that made her family's fashion house a success.
