already some campaign news!

This is the last day of Fashion Week and the campaign rumors are already starting. One that’s not just gossip: Tao Okamoto just landed Akris. Albert Kriemler tapped her after falling in love with the stunner during the casting process. The photographer was never in question either; it’s Steven Meisel. Kriemler was actually one of the first people in the industry to give Meisel a campaign chance too. “I remember seeing this great Bazaar editorial and then a DKNY catalog that was shot black on black,” said the Akris designer. “I told myself. ‘I have to find and work with this guy immediately’. And we’ve worked with each other ever since.”

She looks great at Vuitton, love the dress on her and how exciting that she got a campaign, and with Meisel too!

[delicafly]

Wow! Amazing season. She is so lovely.

 

[fashionlover2001]

Amazing season!! I was excited to her at Miu Miu.

 

[wolfy]

So glad she got Akris already
I hear its a well paying campaign

 

[JSYK]

it's kind of weird when they treat her like a brand new face, as if she just started modeling
but this "re-start" has obviously been amazing, congrats to Tao and kudos to Supreme!

TAO OF TAO

Most models begin walking in shows in their late teens. At 22, Tao has followed a different path during her debut on this season’s runways. Nevertheless, it was clear to us, this girl knows how to captivate her audience. She impressed us during a casual go-see in our office right before the start of shows. She won us over in the morning light with her luminous skin, gentle energy and positively natural beauty. We were initially struck by this new face’s bold haircut, but ultimately her grace and confidence in front of the camera captured our hearts, and will hopefully steal yours too!

i remember when she first came on to the scene a couple of seasons ago and i wasn't very impressed with her - i thought she was a little dull. but then she cut her hair.....and that difference really makes her stand out in a fantastic way! love the new look and am happy for her success!

congrats on landing the akris campaign as well!
