Take Katniss Everdeen, for instance. She may be outfitted in leather pants and jacket while fighting for her life, but when she's not part of the [Hunger Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hunger-games-collection), she's dressed spectacularly for her fans. Majestic and gothic, the Simona Semen Fall/Winter 2014 collection makes a bold statement. As for the Simona Semen 2014 ad campaign, shot by photographer Cristian Floriganta and art directed by Alin Galatescu, it is set outdoors in a forest to give it more of an approachable, earthy feel.
