Balenciaga has unveiled its latest advertising images, starring Canadian beauty Daria Werbowy, who was photographed by fashion legend Steven Klein.
Already the face of Céline and Salvatore Ferragamo this season, the 30 year-old model has bagged another high-profile campaign, picked by Balenciaga creative director Alexander Wang as the star of his latest campaign.
Werbowy replaces last season’s star Kristen McMenamy, who was also shot by Klein, the 47-year-old model appearing in a series of moody shots. The photographer has revisited the cold, fresh minimalism of Fall-Winter, but added an organic twist with some dark ivy crawling up the walls and twisting around Werbowy’s face. The brunette was also given a bleached out slick-back hair-do to complement her dark red lip.
Jacob K styled the shoot, working alongside makeup artist Diane Kendal. Hair was provided by Paul Hanlon who also took care of Alexander Wang’s own label Spring-Summer 2014 shoot, as well as this season’s campaigns for luxury labels Calvin Klein and Roberto Cavalli.
