Oh, I love the concept! My only concern is that they couldn't have chosen an even more lifeless cast. I'm sorry, but it seems as if they're just standing there. From last season's remarkable cast to this? C'mon.
All Aboard – Louis Vuitton’s fall 2012 campaign takes direction from the runway show with an image set onboard a train featuring a cast full of up and comers photographed by Steven Meisel. Models Mackenzie Drazan, Marie Piovesan, Franzsika Müller, Julia Nobis, Ros Georgiou, Marina Heiden and Elena Bartels wear the label’s turn of the century outerwear and oversize hats with Vuitton luggage in plain view of course.
Looks like an editorial for US Vogue.
Can we get a full list of all the models? I'm so confused right now......
wwd.comGOING PLACES: Making good use of the extravagant train-station set for its fall fashion show, Louis Vuitton made a locomotive the backdrop for its next campaign — and is dispatching it to Shanghai for a gala taking place next month. “We wanted to continue the journey we started with the fashion show,” said Vuitton’s artistic director Marc Jacobs, adding the ads are meant to evoke “the glamour of travel and the romance of going somewhere.”
Steven Meisel photographed 10 female models and four male porters in the reconstructed interior of the Louis Vuitton Express in a New York studio. It’s the first time the brand has sought to evoke the exact ambiance of its Paris show. Ads are slated to break in August magazines worldwide.
A dedicated Web site — louisvuittonexpress.com — is to document the train’s journey from Paris from July 5. When it chugs into the show site on Shanghai’s famous Bund at 9 p.m. on the 19th, models are to disembark in the fall collection and circle the train, just as they did in Paris. The event coincides with an exhibition of travel articles and the opening of Vuitton’s first maison in China — a four-level unit at the Plaza 66 complex.
