Ad campaigns

Bottega Veneta x ASAP Rocky pre-Spring 2024



Asap Rocky Bottega Veneta pre-Spring 24 1

Bottega Veneta just dropped an ad campaign featuring ASAP Rocky in paparazzi photo mode. As in, the brand licensed actual pap images of him out and about wearing Bottega from Getty Images and stuck its logo on top.

Controversial, but I think it’s genius. Probably because it’s so unexpected from Matthiu’s Blazy’s straight-laced Bottega. But also because it fits with Bottega’s recent on-the-street vibe.

My fave is the flowers-and-baguette shot with the juice run a close second.

(Unfortunately, they ruined the thrill by dropping the women’s version featuring Kendall Jenner. Not as genius for me as she’s way too obvious a celeb choice, doesn’t have the personal style of Rocky and I think we’re all bored of nepo models. NEXT!)

Follow a stylist



Suzanne Koller T Magazine Keizo Kitajima

Influencers, schminfluencers! If you want styling ideas, better to follow the stylists.

Compared to photographers, the best in the biz are still fairly elusive on Instagram (where are you, Joe McKenna?!) but once you locate them, they’re worth checking in with. They tend to repeat their tricks across the brands and publications they work for, so it’s easy to see all their ideas and influences in one place.

For starters, I follow Brian Molloy (he styles The Row, TOD’S and newly trendy Tory Burch shows), Suzanne Koller (of Self Service and M Le Magazine Du Monde fame, and she just did that Carven show), Jane How (the reason COS* campaigns look so good) and Jodie Barnes (Hermès, Fantastic Man and Studio Nicholson fabulosity)…

Drop your faves in the comments…

Gentlewoman style: Peter Do x Banana Republic



Peter Do x Banana Republic AW23

“I feel like the industry is going through sort of a collaboration exhaustion, and I didn’t want to add any more to that conversation if I didn’t have anything new to say. If we do this, I said, we have to do it in a way where we don’t sacrifice any design integrity…After visiting the stores, I realized the quality is really amazing.”
Peter Do, Vogue.

The Peter Do x Banana Republic collab sounds promising doesn’t it? While we await his debut collection for Helmut Lang at NYFW next month, we’re being teased with this capsule Banana Republic semi-reveal, which lands in October. (more…)
