Photo Speak: Vlisco Jumping Horse Design

I love everything about this photograph - the elegance of the entire look is just so soothing. I love the contrasting fabrics, the design, makeup, the styling, and the model. The surreal ambiance is also a big plus...Vlisco knows how to make creatively beautiful campaigns that sends a jolt of excitement.

Perfect Patterns + Lavishing Layers = Vlisco 'Jeu de Couleurs' Campaign


Honestly, I don’t think I keep up with my personal life as much as I keep up with Vlisco’s always charming campaigns – I mean, why would I have the website bookmarked and also make it on the list of my must check websites in a week?



 As in, why not? I love the brand!

Vlisco is an amazing brand that I’m almost sure is occupied with equally brilliant people as the designs created. Yet another stunning campaign – ‘Jeu de Couleurs’ (which I discovered means 'Colours Game') of photos I already in the folder of my laptop’s ‘Screen Saver’, I love the concept, the design and the way maximum control put into the ambiance set for the story. Seriously, nothing like this comes from simple minds, they have a great team – one I wish I could be a part of considering my dear love for fashion and especially campaigns.
