Steven Meisel Creates Bottega Veneta’s Pretty in Purple Fall Advertisements

34 sec read

Bottega Veneta has enlisted some all star talent for its fall advertising campaign. The fashion label’s creative director Tomas Maier entrusted star photographer Steven Meisel to capture these gorgeous shots of Russian model Anna Jagodzinska. And he couldn’t be more pleased with the results.

I admire the intelligence that [Meisel] brings to fashion,” Tomas Maier gushed. “He approaches clothes with an understanding of the women who wear them and an awareness of the cultural context in which fashion exists.”

Bottega Veneta ads rarely make waves, preferring instead to keep things chic and simple. These commercials are no exception, with their dark moody backgrounds and Anja’s sophisticated purple attire and accessories. I’m particularly enamored with those exotic handbags, although I’m sure these ostrich and crocodile beauties will be worth way more than I can afford!

The ads will soon hit fashion glossies, and for the first time, iconic newspapers including The New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and London Times.
