Marc Jacobs stays switching it up when it comes to enlisting photographers for his various different advertising campaigns. Over recent seasons, everyone from Tyler Mitchell and Tyrone Levon to Juergen Teller and Harley Weir have been commissioned to lens campaign imagery for the designer’s eponymous brand. Added to the list with the unveiling of Jacobs’ latest is Carin Backoff. Shining a spotlight upon ‘The Sack Bag’ for Summer 2024, Jacobs endorses a whole plethora of personalities as the face and embodiment of the handbag that launched earlier this year. Sabrina Carpenter, Vittoria Ceretti, Irina Shayk, Anok Yai, Charli XCX and Gabriette make appearances throughout the vibrant and splashy campaign, each styled by Alastair McKimm and captured against a gray backdrop within Backoff’s photographic studio.

Read below the reactions of theFashionSpot’s forum members:

“Vittoria and Irina look great! Not sure about the panties, tho,” voiced justaguy.

“Love the photographs! Beautiful and minimal with a pop of hot, bright colors!” MModa admired.

Also very much a fan was vogue28: “The strongest Marc Jacobs campaign in what feels like forever! There’s a sense of life here, feels more… sultry and alive than recent Marc Jacobs campaigns. The casting is great, but would’ve just left it at Vittoria Ceretti, Irina Shayk and Anok Yai. Nevertheless, a thumbs up from me!”

“The girls look great but the products are not desirable…” scoffed forum member thiago.

KoV agreed, exclaiming: “Imagine getting this cast together just to hawk that bag!”

Vittoria Ceretti remains one of the most in-demand of models working today. In addition to becoming the face of mega brands like Michael Kors and Gucci in 2024, the Italian beauty has since graced the covers of British Vogue, American ELLE, POP Magazine and Vogue Korea. Ceretti’s latest addition to her ever-growing portfolio is the cover of Dazed, welcomed to become one of the Spring 2024 cover stars by the title’s editor-in-chief Ib Kamara. Photographed by Thibaut Grevet, the current face of Chanel Beauty was originally captured in the French photographer’s studio and superimposed high atop a New York skyscraper in the visually-arresting cover image. Dressed by stylist Imruh Asha, the Sabato De Sarno favorite wears a look from the first eveningwear collection designed by the Gucci creative director.

Read below the reactions of theFashionSpot’s forum members:

“This is giving me so much anxiety,” immediately shared GERGIN.

“Reminds me of those photographs Thierry Mugler took at the Chrysler building,” tigerrouge pointed out.

“The cover and accompanying story with Vittoria Ceretti genuinely feels like the most visually-arresting and most interesting fashion shoot I’ve seen from a magazine in months. I love it, instantly reminded me of those glorious Thierry Mugler campaigns from the 80s,” echoed vogue28.

Also liking what they saw was dontbeadrag: “I actually dig this. I like Vittoria and I like the idea that is at least more than a basic studio shoot. Very Gen Z take on classic, timeless tropes of photography from the past times. Surprised how glamorous the styling is for Dazed!”

Yet not everyone was so sold out on the end result. “Extremely pointless that Vittoria Ceretti is just comped into the backgrounds. Why bother with the shoot as a whole?” asked Kite.

“Not effortless at all,” voiced oaklee91.

Rafael Pavarotti remains one of the most in-demand of fashion photographers working today. The young Brazilian creative has been embraced by the industry from the get-go, and has since photographed the buzz-worthy covers of American and British Vogue with the 90s supermodels and the covers of Vogue Italia with Gisele Bündchen and Kim Kardashian. Pavarotti has also been called upon by the likes of Balmain and Ferragamo to lens their advertising campaign, in addition to H&M. The partnership between the pair began to blossom back in 2021, with the Swedish fashion retailer also enlisting Pavarotti to lens the Fall 2023 advertising campaign. He’s back for the current Spring 2024 season, shooting a handful of models-of-the-moment who include Vittoria Ceretti, Anok Yai, Bibi Breslin, Precious Lee and Raquel Zimmermann.

Read below the reactions of theFashionSpot’s forum members:

“Great casting! Great photographs! Vogue-esque,” approved MModa.

Vogue28 couldn’t have agreed more, raving: “You know Vogue is doing something wrong when a H&M advertising campaign oozes more life! Absolutely loving this. Massively here for the cast, the photography from Pavarotti, the movement, the hairography, the poses, the energy… ALL of it!”

“Amazing casting, Raquel looks gorgeous! Anok is selling it! And this new girl Bibi is powerful! Nothing bad about this,” commended forum member Ihhbl.

Subsequent to getting his foot over the threshold at Gucci HQ, Sabato De Sarno immediately fixed his gaze upon David Sims to lens the storied Italian fashion house’s mainline advertising campaigns.

To begin , De Sarno hadn’t even unveiled his debut collection before Sims was shooting the Fall 2023 collection designed by the in-house design team. The Italian designer soon teamed up with the British fashion photographer to profile Daria Werbowy for the Gucci Marina Chain jewelry campaign and relied on Sims again to capture his debut Spring 2024 campaign as Gucci creative director. Sims remains on the books with the unveiling of the Gucci eyewear advertising campaign for the Spring 2024 season. Italian model and industry fave Vittoria Ceretti, Chinese actress Ni Ni, British actress Alia Bhatt (who is of Indian descent) and American male model Max Wagner. The cast roam a backdrop boasting the cityscape of Milan throughout the campaign images, whilst David Sims snaps away.

Read below the reactions of theFashionSpot’s forum members:

“This can’t be an ad for Gucci!” Scotty shrieked the moment the campaign struck.

“Warning: Not to be confused with J. Crew. Any hint of creativity, personality, luxury, glamour or fantasy is totally forbidden. We won’t repeat twice,” stated an unimpressed yslforever.

“DKN-WHY!” ForTheImage declared.

Thiago commented: “No wonder why sales are decreasing. This is truly the end of creativity.”

“What a truly AWFUL eyewear advertising campaign. Sabato De Sarno’s Gucci campaigns have been a total flop and a complete nonevent. I loathe that hazy filter from David Sims here and how dreadfully dull the whole campaign is. Not even the presence of Vittoria Ceretti is enough to win me over here,” shared vogue28.

“AI-looking mess,” critiqued avonlea002.

Over the years, Vittoria Ceretti and Luigi & Iango and proved to be a match made in fashion heaven. Whether the model and photographic duo have teamed up together to shoot the advertising campaign of Ermanno Scervino or created pure magic for Vogue Japan – we here at theFashionSpot are usually left enthralled. The gang is reunited once again, at the request of Shin Kwang-ho, who welcomes Ceretti as Vogue Korea’s April 2024 cover girl. Captured on location in Downtown Los Angeles, Luigi & Iango also join forces with Korean Vogue‘s fashion director Eunyoung Sohn for the occasion to profile the Italian beauty. The current face of Michael Kors Collection is dressed in looks from Prada’s Spring 2024 collection across a duo of collectable and cinematic covers. Needless to say, we’re completely besotted with the end result.

Read below the reactions of theFashionSpot’s forum members:

“Gorgeous! Very happy to see Vittoria dressed in Prada,” admired chrisand489.

“Two beautiful fashion covers on a fashion magazine with one of the greatest models out there. What’s not to like?” asked forum member Lax89.

“Spectacular set of covers with a talented supermodel. I couldn’t ask for more!” echoed crmsn.

Sharing the same level of enthusiasm was aracic: “Love! The softly colored cover surprisingly appeals more to me, it looks so good. The black and white works beautifully as well. It’s a double win for Vogue Korea this month!”

MModa agreed, adding: “Both covers are gorgeous! Both are beautiful in their own unique way.”

“Vittoria delivers as always!” declared Simera.

Nina Garcia’s ELLE outshines the competition on the regular, leaving the likes of Anna Wintour’s Vogue and Samira Nasr’s Harper’s Bazaar in the dust. Throughout her tenure as editor of the Hearst-owned fashion title, Garcia has championed fashion models as ELLE cover stars – very much to the delight of us here at theFashionSpot. Irina Shayk, Imaan Hammam, Gigi Hadid, Kaia Gerber and Gisele Bündchen have each been blessed with covers of late. Now, it’s Vittoria Ceretti’s turn in the spotlight for March 2024. Shot by Mario Sorrenti and styled by ELLE‘s fashion director Alex White, the Italian beauty and current face of Michael Kors Collection wears pieces from Gucci and Willy Chavarria across a duo of simplistic covers.

Read below the reactions of theFashionSpot’s forum members:

“Hum… It’s great that ELLE continues to use models, but this one (cover) in particular is bad!” shrieked DK92 upon digesting ELLE‘s latest.

“Too empty. I don’t know… there’s something missing on the cover,” chimed in matheus_s.

“US ELLE‘s covers are usually great,” confessed tigerrouge. “I wasn’t expecting to see Vittoria looking like a drowned rat in an ill-fitting dress.”

“What’s with the greasy hair?” quizzed blueorchid.

Kokobombon commented: “I could do without the hairstyle, but gosh that stare!”

“What a disappointment. Vittoria is always spectacular, but she deserved better than this,” remarked aracic.

Nevertheless, not everyone was left so disappointed. “Must definitely be lowering my standards lately, because despite the general consensus of this thread, I’m very much a fan of the two covers. In particular… the second with Vittoria wearing the Willy Chavarria. I have a massive amount of respect and admiration for Nina Garcia endorsing fashion models as cover stars,” applauded vogue28.

We’ve become fairly used to globe trotting via the advertising campaigns of Michael Kors Collection. One season we are jetting off to Monte Carlo, the next it’s dashing about the streets of New York City and Mr. Kors is whisking us off to the majestic island of Capri for Spring 2024. The powerhouse American designer drops Anok Yai this season, opting to cast Vittoria Ceretti solo. Remaining on the books also is photographic duo Inez van Lamsweerde & Vinoodh Matadin. Throughout the sun-drenched campaign imagery, the Italian beauty (and firm forum favorite) is styled by Emmanuelle Alt and captured by the Dutch creative twosome around various different picturesque and dreamy locations throughout the retro-inspired campaign imagery.

Read below the reactions of theFashionSpot’s forum members:

“Absolutely beautiful fashion photography and views! Love seeing Inez & Vinoodh’s dreamy imagery. Reminds me of their work for Vogue Paris,” raved MModa.

In complete agreement was vogue28: “A vast improvement from last month’s eyesore of a campaign, IMO. Can you ever go wrong with a location like Capri? Absolutely majestic setting. Vittoria Ceretti solo was also a very good idea, love how she’s photographed here and how not even the stunning can steal focus from Ceretti’s awe-striking beauty.”

“I feel like I should like this more than I do,” admitted aracic. “The landscapes are stunning and so is Vittoria… But it feels so weirdly static and the clothes are quite ugly, to be honest. Something’s just not clicking for me.”

“Needs a [Mario] Testino-style filter of golden light making everything look more expensive than it is,” pointed out forum member tigerrouge.

“Same old. Not even Vittoria can save it this time,” disapproved kokobombon.

It has been a never-ending guessing game over on theFashionSpot forums for months. Speculating, just as to who might crop up on the cover of Edward Enninful’s final issue of British Vogue. Since June 2023, upon the news of Enninful departing the British fashion bible after a rather remarkable 7-year stint, names like Beyoncé were thrown around with regards to his final cover star. Needless to say, we didn’t see this one coming…

Forgoing just the one cover star, Enninful called upon a whopping 40 of his chosenVogue icons for his concluding cover. As a result, Karen Elson, Irina Shayk, Laverne Cox, Anya Taylor-Joy, Serena Williams, Rina Sawayama, Karlie Kloss, Jourdan Dunn, Cindy Crawford, Amber Valletta, Precious Lee, Jodie Comer, Gemma Chan, Adut Akech, Vittoria Ceretti, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Cata Delevingne, Jane Fonda, Gigi Hadid, Linda Evangelista, Adwoa Aboah, Miley Cyrus, Paloma Elsesser, Iman, Victoria Beckham, Ariana DeBose, Jameela Jamil, Oprah, Selma Hayek, Christy Turlington, Salma Blair, Maya Jama, Kate Moss, Cynthia Erivo, Simone Ashley, Lila Moss, Anok Yai, Kaia Gerber, Naomi Campbell and Dua Lipa grace the cover. The women flocked together in New York, and assemble for a group photograph before the lens of Steven Meisel.

Read below the reactions of theFashionSpot’s forum members:

“Thank you, Edward. Thank you fashion gods! It’s a very interesting mix of cover subjects, some greats, some less than greats. Everyone looks fantastic, not a single woman looks unflattering here and that’s exactly what you want in a group cover, ” approved aracic.

LastNight was of the same mind, echoing: “I really like it! I think it’s quite striking and impressive to get all those people together.”

“I mean it’s a nice flex for him to have all these names on his last issue, but the composition is awful,” chimed in Marc10.

Thiago commented: “The Photoshop is terrible but that’s a proper farewell – Steven Meisel and legends!”

“It’s insane that they managed to actually get everyone there and still made it look like it’s a completely fake, Photoshopped group picture,” exclaimed lookatme.

“The cover isn’t groundbreaking enough, but you can’t make me hate it. Edward is such a mastermind, and I will surely miss his Vogue era,” shared forum member crmsn.

Caioherreo most definitely wasn’t all too impressed, describing the cover as “super boring” but do you agree?

Inez van Lamsweerde & Vinoodh Matadin have remained Michael Kors’ photographers of choice since Fall 2018, and the relationship is still going strong, for yet another season. After transporting us to a the glitzy resort of Monte Carlo last season, we’re now back stateside for Michael Kors Collection’s Fall 2023 campaign offering and we’re venturing out into the streets of New York City – in the famed Greenwich Village neighborhood, to be exact. Dressed for the occasion in Kors’ 70s-inspired collection by stylist Carlos Nazario, models Vittoria Ceretti and Anok Yai become girls about town in the chic campaign imagery, both embodying the Michael Kors woman perfectly.

Members of our forums, however, were left rather underwhelmed. “When you know MK campaigns for the past 20 years, it’s insane to just have models on the streets of NYC,” critiqued Lola701.
“Looks like they’re on patrol, in the Michael Kors military division, goose-stepping down the street,” forum member tigerrouge laughed.
“Vittoria and Anok have ZERO energy together,” voiced FashionFanatico.
“Both wigs look terrible!” thiago cried out.
Urban Stylin agreed, commenting: “Those wigs are annoying me!”
“We need to talk about Anok’s wig. This is criminal…” echoed GivenchyAddict.
“One of my most favorite of collections during NYFW did not deserve such a horrific advertising campaign! The hair on Anok Yai is atrocious, and Vittoria Ceretti’s mop isn’t much better either. The pairing of Yai and Ceretti simply does not work… both have zero chemistry together. What a travesty this is shaping up to be!” disapproved vogue28.
