The Rag & Bone SS14 campaign focuses on two subjects centred around downtown L.A.
Stacy Martin from Lars Von Triers’ Nymphomaniac and Emile Hirsch from Lone Survivor are seen idling around the streets of L.A. Glen Luchford shot the campaign using 35 mm film, which adds a dreamy, grainy and overexposed feeling to the collection. Hirsch is seen laying on a broken lawn chair, or casually contemplating on his bed while Martin is dressed in simplistic, minimal clothes with perfectly messy hair and an expressionless look on her face.
This campaign is among many stylish Rag & Bone photo shoots. With its minimal looks and care-free attitude, Rag & Bone is setting the standard of cool. It offers grungy, yet chic looks that anyone can pull off and exemplifies the looks that are sought-after at the moment.
