Agent Provocateur's Lingerie Newest Campaign Stars Former Employees
Laura McQuarrie — September 15, 2015 — Fashion
People who work retail often have the most intimate knowledge of a product, so it's no surprise that Agent Provocateur's Autumn/Winter 2015 campaign stars none other than Paloma Faith and Alice Hawkins, two of the lingerie company's former employees.
With these unique women as models, the #KnickersForever campaign plays off of the fact that the women were once so involved with the brand. The campaign has the women step into the roles of a sultry store manager, wiping windows and overseeing operations from a front desk.
In addition to the polishing finished images of the shoot being released, there are also a few candid Polaroid-style shots that keep the whole campaign real, but just as fun.
