Two of the fashion industries most well-known models, Cara Delevingne and Suki Waterhouse, are set to appear in Burberry’s Fall 2014 ad campaign shot by Mario Testino and creative director Christopher Bailey. Models Malaika Firth, Callum Ball, Tarun Nijjer, and Oli Green are also starring in the upcoming ads for the British brand. The ads will launch next month, and will appear in print, outdoors, and on multiple online platforms according to a report by Women’s Wear Daily.
E! Online showed a clip of one of the video ads where the models strutted around a blank white backdrop in slow motion with “The Magic Position” playing in the background. The models showed off a variety of classic Burberry trench coats, scarves, suits, and bags. The collection also included many new hand-painted unique patterns and designs.
Delevingne and Waterhouse just so happen to be best friends off camera, but the duo has never appeared on camera until now. “We’ve known each other since we were kids, so now, when we’re working together, it never feels like I’m on my own,” Waterhouse told the Evening Standard regarding her longtime friendship with Delevingne.
The pair will also be the faces of two different Burberry fragrance ad campaigns—Delevingne will take on the My Burberry scent and Waterhouse will be featured in Burberry Brit Rhythm ads.
Creative director, Christorpher Bailey remarked on the cast models for the label, telling WWD: “A dynamic British cast brings the artistic spirit of the campaign to life with the iconic Burberry trench coat at its heart.”
