Kendall Jenner and Cara Delevingne front Marc Jacobs F/W 2016 campaign
Kendall Jenner and Cara Delevingne front Marc Jacobs’ star-studded fall/winter 2016 campaign.
The supermodels join a roster of rockstars and Courtney Love, Marilyn Manson, Annie Clark aka St. Vincent (Delevingne’s girlfriend), Missy Elliott, underground punk artist Kembra, and actress Sissy Spacek.
The gothic campaign which is Jacobs’ biggest all-star campaign cast yet was lensed by star photographer David Sims. Jacobs shared each of campaign images on his Instagram, explaining the backstory of how he tapped each campaign star, how they were a source of inspiration for this season and the brand’s fall 2016 aesthetic.
On Cara Delevingne, Jacobs wrote: ‘Every once in a blue moon I am fortunate enough to meet a model with a personality so huge it almost overshadows even the strongest of looks – the most dramatic fashion. When I met Cara through Katie Grand a few years ago, she was the girl in the animal onesie with boundless energy, great humor and in perpetual motion. Watching Cara’s growth and evolution into a dynamic, outspoken, independent woman is a true joy, just as she is herself. Her generosity and care in wanting to get a job done right (even if it means missing a flight!) is a testament to her professionalism and true character.’
While on Kendall: ‘During castings for Fall ’16, due to the enormous height of the boots we designed, we had to make certain that each girl was able to walk (and walk safely). Kendall slid those boots on and walked around the studio as if she was in a pair of running shoes: statuesque, confident and just as enthusiastic and excited to be doing the show as if it was her first one. For me, it is the ability of a model to effortlessly transform into a look and character that makes her so appealing and inspiring.’
