Prada has put its clutch purses front and center for its new Resort advertising campaign. French actress Lea Seydoux carries more purses than anyone would need on an evening out in the latest campaign.
It seems Prada is pretty enamored with the actress at the moment. She recently starred in the fashion house’s commercials for its latest fragrance, Candy. While that ad was lighthearted and uncharacteristically goofy by Prada’s standards, this image shows the actress’ more solemn side. I’m not sure how she manages to be so serious while she’s overloaded with clutch purses, but she somehow makes it work. Perhaps she’s concentrating on keeping them all at hand!
While Seydoux does her part, photographer Steven Miesel must also be credited for this beautiful advertisement. He’s brought out the best in both Seydoux and her accessories, although when you’re dealing with such raw beauty the task’s got to be a little easier.
While the handbags are the focus, it’s also worth noting the eye-catching necklace and cuffs Seydoux sports. They’re part of Prada’s new jewelry collection, which will be the label’s first.
Just quietly, I’m a bit jealous of Seydoux’s Prada purse collection. I’d kill to get my mitts on these evening bags, particularly that red crocodile embossed purse. Which one has caught your eye?
