When Donatella Versace presented a supermodel-studded Spring 2018 runway finale during Milan Fashion Week in September, it was a big surprise for all us. Spring 2018 collection paying homage to Gianni’s greatest designs, the original ’90s supermodels reunited on the runway for the occasion. Naomi Campbell, Cindy Crawford, Claudia Schiffer, Carla Bruni, and Helena Christensen all walked hand-in-hand behind Donatella for an incredible finale down the runway.
Now, Donatella is aiming to bring back some of the excitement from fashion week into ad campaign season, with a stacked lineup of OG models and up-and-coming faces photographed by Steven Meisel. The full campaign will debut on Dec. 18, reports WWD, and will be comprised of photos and videos, according to The New York Times.
From that memorable runway finale in Milan, Campbell is the only supermodel to star in the campaign, joined by Gisele Bündchen, Irina Shayk, Christy Turlington, Natalia Vodianova and Raquel Zimmermann. More Insta-friendly models are also featured, including Kaia Gerber, Gigi Hadid, Grace Elizabeth, Vittoria Ceretti, Cara Taylor, Birgit Kos and male model Noah Luis Brown.
We’ve already been seeing a lot of Versace’s Spring 2018 collection in the fashion and pop culture space: The Gianni-era pieces are a favorite on magazine covers and the red carpet. (Not to mention Farfetch offering vintage Versace — 500 pieces total — for sale.) Plus, with the new “American Crime Story” series on Gianni’s 1997 murder set to premiere in January, we expect a lot more Versace buzz in the new year, too.
