Inspired by the agility of Marie Antoinette, Chanel has successfully transformed the luxury of 18th French aristocrats into a regal, urban-sophisticated photo shoot. Supermodels Saskia de Brauw and Cara Delevingne are gracefully flawless posing for Chanel Resort 2013 ad campaign, where a gold and opulent boudoir setting proves how creative director Karl Lagerfeld goes a little bit free with the fantasy.
As both Cara and Saskia perfectly deliver what this historical-inspired campaign is concerned, and behind the lenses of the designer himself, Karl has brilliantly brought back the Chanel shapes to the 18th century vibe, which befit ruffles and intricate detailing of the label’s resort season’s voluminous, pleated skirts and tweed jackets.
