The idea of being abandoned in a desert normally conjures up thoughts that have nothing to do with fashion, but the Derek Lam Fall/Winter 2010-11 campaign gives a stylish representation of that scenario.

Shot by photographer Solve Sundsbo, the Derek Lam Fall/Winter 2010-11 campaign features fashion model Maryna Linchuk. The [earth-toned ensembles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jiyongkim-fw25) are also a perfect contrast to the [desert backdrop](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kotn-fw-2024-collection).
