Hello, Navy Boys! This ad campaign for Longchamp incorporates uniformed men (a look some women find totally irresistible) and and dolled up in leopard-print supermodels Kate Moss and Daria Werbowy (two women many men find irresistible).
Leaving the men faceless in the Longchamp autumn/winter '09 campaign works well as it leaves an air of mystery—besides, as Trend Hunter's fashion-savvy Ayman has pointed out, faceless photo shoots are all the rage these days.
Implications - Epic fashion duo Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott captured these vibrant campaigns which feature the models alongside a row of white-uniformed sailors who complete every woman's fantasy. Given that it was New York's Fleet Week just a few weeks ago, the shoot is timed well and sure to make waves in the fashion world.
