Another ad campaign, another supermodel. This time it’s Christy Turlington’s turn as the face of the new [Spring Summer 2009 ad campaign](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/contemporary-femininity) for Bally.

Starring alongside a sizzling hot Oriol Elcacho, Christy was captured by Mario Sorrenti in a [swimming pool theme](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tom-daley-and-malibu) that screams summer!

We’ve been seeing a lot of [sunny gardens and greenhouses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/golden-hour-getaway-collection) as the theme for the spring campaign, so I am glad Bally decided to go all for it and get wet.

## Key Themes

### What Makes This Trend Stand Out

- **Swimwear Campaigns:** Poolside fashion campaigns featuring well-known models like Christy Turlington are becoming increasingly popular, presenting opportunities for brands to showcase their swimwear apparel in exciting and innovative ways.
- **Experiential Marketing:** Brands are exploring new and immersive ways to market their products, such as creating campaigns centered around a specific location or experience, like a swimming pool or beach.
- **Sustainable Fashion Campaigns:** With the rise of eco-consciousness, sustainable and ethical fashion campaigns set in natural environments like pools and beaches can be a great opportunity for brands to promote their eco-friendly products in a visually appealing way.

### Sectors Adopting This

- **Fashion:** The fashion industry can leverage poolside fashion campaigns to stay relevant and showcase new swimwear designs, making a splash in the market and reaching their target audience in a fun way.
- **Marketing:** Marketing agencies and firms can capitalize on the trend of experiential marketing and create unique campaigns that offer a distinct experience, setting brands apart from their competition and creating meaningful connections with potential customers.
- **Photography and Film:** Photography and film studios can offer their services for poolside fashion campaigns, capturing bold and striking images that evoke a sense of fun and leisure, creating captivating content for brands to use across various platforms.
