Femme Fatale Footwear Ads

The Bionda Castana Fall 2012 Campaign is Inspired by Film Noir

The Bionda Castana Fall 2012 ad campaign features much darker, more mysterious images than its previous campaign. Whereas the Spring 2012 print ads were filled with bright pastels and demure poses, this one is all about black and blood red hues as well as sexier, edgier stances. Considering that the two season are radically different when it comes to clothing, this doesn't come as a surprise.

Inspired by film noir, the Bionda Castana Fall 2012 collection and campaign was shot by United Kingdom-based photographer Aaron Tilley. The gorgeous gams were styled by Julia Brenard. She complemented the spotlit shoes and handbags with lingerie and form-fitting skirts. Effortlessly seductive, Bionda Castana Fall 2012's python, velvet, suede, pony skin and nappa styles draw on the understated sensuality of forties and fifties films.
