Playfully Prim & Proper Ads

The Art of Fashion Spring 2013 Campaign Stars Model Karlie Kloss

The Art of Fashion Spring 2013 ad campaign for Neiman Marcus is playfully prim and proper. Although models Karlie Kloss and Vika Falileeva look like they are on their way to high tea or some other fancy social event, they are clearly up to something else completely. The sophisticated and elegant ensembles have not stopped them for having a little fun, from motorcycle shenanigans to fencing fights.

Lensed by photographer Walter Chin, the Art of Fashion Spring 2013 ad campaign does not diminish the allure of such bigs names as Alexander McQueen, Oscar de la Renta, Lanvin and Jil Sander. Instead, women will be able to see that they can have the best of both worlds.
