For Spring/Summer of this year the Italian Fashion Powerhouse, Prada, have made a couple of impressive calls for their Advertising campaign, not content with using one major player in modern cinema they have used four. Four leading men – two of them true iconic actors of a generation, Benicio Del Toro (Traffic, The Usual Suspect) and Harvey Keitel (Taxi Driver , Reservoir Dogs). Two of them new school shining lights who are making a name for themselves in their own rights, Dane DeHaan (Chronicle, The Place beyond the Pines) and Aaron Taylor-Johnson (Savages, Kick Ass).
For the Campaign, the gentlemen, who were shot by the equally iconic photographer David Sims, appear in a series of intimate monochrome images which concentrate of the character of the subjects then what is going on around them. Additionally they’re styled simply with layered shirting, low cut polo shirts, functional eyewear and the utilitarian clean lines of jackets and lightweight coats.
The results speak for themselves, offering a striking, elegant and effective series of images, but judge for yourself.
