Fall 2016 Ad Campaigns We Love

It’s official.  All fashion minds are now focused on Fall 2016. The anticipation of the September covers and the trickle of cozy sweaters now fixtures on shelves signify that it’s time to put away the flip flops and get ready to light the fireplace. What better way to preview the trends and styles that you will be coveting this fall than by looking through the celebrity-laced Fall 2016 ad campaigns that are debuting for any brands worth their salt.

Even though distribution mediums may have changed, from traditional print and magazine page ads to a more digital format, the labor of love that brings an ad campaign to life hasn’t. Developing a catchy and arresting theme, finding the perfect models, securing the best location, hair, makeup, stylist, creative director…. lights, camera, action! So much effort goes into creating a seasonal, and extremely temporary, visual depiction of a brand’s trend story. Seems a bit much on the surface, but for those in-the-know, they know that the right combination can create a frenzied demand that will mean huge profits and bragging rights to-boot.
