St. John S/S 2010 : Karen Elson by Greg Kadel - CAMPAIGN PREVIEW



Personally I am in Love with this shot. Karen looks just stunning in a boring way, though! She is so gorgeous in this pic, her red hair looks like fire just simply flaming. Although it was her first time working with Greg Kadel she did quite a good Job. This was a Preview so stay Tuned for more pics!!

Below I posted what the chief executive officer Glenn McMahon opinion is about the Campaign and Karen Elson.


QUOTE: A DIFFERENT LOOK: There will be no more glamour shots of Angelina Jolie or images of a vacationing Kelly Gray for St. John going forward. “[Jolie] overshadowed the brand,” said chief executive officer Glenn McMahon. “We wanted to make a clean break from actresses and steer away from blondes and cleanse the palette.” This led to hiring model Karen Elson, who was shot by photographer Greg Kadel in a bare studio for the spring campaign. “We needed to show a modern point of view of St. John,” McMahon added. “We have evolved.”

The ads, directed by executive vice president of design George Sharp, will launch in the February issues of Vanity Fair, Harper’s Bazaar and Vogue. McMahon said the print media buy is up slightly and he is in talks about digital outreach, spending on which he predicts will be up 15 percent.
