Some of the best looks from Roberto Cavalli's romantic, "Peruvian" collection of A/W 2008/09 season are beautifully captured by photographers Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin for the label's latest ad campaign. Featuring models Isabeli Fontana, Frankie Rayder, Raquel Zimmermann, and Angela Lindvall the pictures benefits from an orphic setting (a haunted, misty, naked mountain valley) to enhance the beauty and liveliness of the garments.
There're the chiffon and silk "debutante" ball gowns, with floral prints and embroideries, evening sexy halter-dresses with the iconic leopard-print or dyed in the sparkling colors of Peru, winter coats with strips of fur, lively ethnic prints on deep black and romantic up-do's.
I love how Frankie poses; she looks so fierce; in fact she manages to add more mystery to this already witching photography.
