Twilight’s glamorous actress Bryce Dallas Howard has been unveiled as the face of Kate Spade’s SS11 and AW11 ad campaigns. Marking not only Bryce’s first fashion campaign, what a first impression it is, but also the label’s first time of using a celebrity in their ads.
It is like Kate Spade’s New Year’s resolution for 2011 was to step out with a new look, and what a look with the neon Scout satchel in two different sizes *want one!!*, popping brightly through on the advert.
The campaign was shot by acclaimed fashion photographer Norman Jean Roy, centres around the “Year of Colour”, and was taken in a loft studio in Brooklyn, New York.
“Bryce is playful, gorgeous and multi-talented. She embraces and embodies the spirit of our brand. The moment she puts our clothes on they come to life in a new, spirited way,” Deborah Lloyd, President and Chief Creative Officer, Kate Spade New York.
I really do love that they chose Bryce, I love seeing her on the red carpet as she has a real elegance about her, and I think she is perfect for the accessories label – and her fiery hair works this neon campaign. I can’t wait to see this ad in a magazine as I am sure the colours will be even more eye-catching.
